Hi all,

I am a beginner in Mathematica, and I have the following "problem": How can 
I write an expression in a specific form?

For example:

- Define a Gaussian:

G[m_, s_, x_] := (1/(s*Sqrt[2*Pi]))*Exp[-(x - m)^2/(2*s^2)];

- Product of two Gaussians:

G[m1, s1, x] * G[m2, s2, x]

- How can I get Mathematica to write the result in terms of c * G[m_, s_, 
x_]? I.e., get the values for c, m and s.

Thanks,

Ares Lagae
