function normqqplot(y,class)

%NORMQQPLOT produces a Quantile-Quantile plot in which the vector y is plotted against 
% the quantiles of a standard normal distribution.

% Required input arguments:
%       y : row or column vector
%
% Optional input arguments:
%    class : a string used for the y-label and the title(default: ' ')
