Description

There are many great examples provided in the docs:

https://www.tensorflow.org/probability/api_docs/python/tfp/trainable_distributions/normal#examples

However, we should also provide a version of that with eager execution in mind. The current example does not work with eager execution, and it is not immediately straightforward to convert the script.
