New Data: Definition: mekso; binary operator: z-score for the $X_1$ quantile; $X_2$ (default: 1) acts as the descriptor toggle (see notes). Notes: If $X_2 = 0$, then $X_1$ is to be interpreted as a quantile and the output is the corresponding (canonical-gaussian) z-score; if $X_2 = 1$ (which is the default), then $X_1$ is to be interpreted as the area below the canonical gaussian and between the output number of standard deviations from the mean of the canonical gaussian. Thus, zu'oi($X_1$, 1) = zu'oi((1/2) + ($X_1$ / 2), 0). Example: zu'oi(.95, 1) = zu'oi(.975, 0) ~ 1.959964; for more information on this example, see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1.96 . For the purposes of this definition, the canonical guassian is such that its mean is 0 and its standard deviation is 1. This number is used in confidence interval calculations, via the sample mean and standard error.
