function y = mnpdf(x,xm,C,constIx)
% y = mnpdf(x,xm,C,constIx)
%    The pdf value for multivariate normal distribution
%
% x:  p-by-draws matrix of values evaluated at where p=size(x,1) is # of variables
% xm: p-by-draws matrix of the mean of x
% C:  p-by-p Choleski square root of PDS S -- the covariance matrix so that S = C*C'
% constIx: index for the constant.  1: constant (normalized); 0: no constant (unnormalized)
%----------
% y:  p-by-draws matrix of pdf's for multivariate normal distribution
