CDF
CDF
[
dist
,
x
]
gives the cumulative distribution function for the symbolic distribution
dist
evaluated at
x
.
CDF
[
dist
]
gives the CDF as a pure function.
MORE INFORMATION
CDF
[
dist
,
x
]
gives the probability that an observed value will be less than or equal to
x
.
For continuous distributions,
CDF
[
dist
,
x
]
is the integral of the probability density function from the lowest value in the domain to
x
.
For discrete distributions,
CDF
[
dist
,
x
]
is the sum of the probability density function from the lowest value in the domain to
x
.
