Hand-Drawn Style Probability Density Curve

An animated probability density function rendered with a hand-sketched, cursive-style aesthetic, complete with looping curves and annotated labels that look drawn by pen. The animation traces the bell-shaped curve, shades the area under it to represent probability, and overlays supporting images and small graphs to connect the math to real-world data. Useful for students learning continuous distributions and teachers wanting a warmer, notebook-style visual instead of a plain textbook graph.
