How can I animate a progagating pulse wave in Mathematica, for example a gaussian curve. I would like to do that for whatever function I can think of. Thank you!

For a sinusoidal wave:

Animate[
 Plot[Sin[t + a], {t, 0, 10}],
 {a, 0, 10}]

For a pulse:

Animate[
 Plot[PDF[NormalDistribution[a, 1], t], {t, 0, 10}],
 {a, 0, 10}]
