8.1 Probability and Statistics 8 - Cumulative Distribution Function

The document discusses cumulative distribution functions and provides an example of calculating the CDF of exam marks data. It generates the probability density function and cumulative distribution function of the marks data, and calculates some cumulative probabilities like the probability of scores below or between certain values.

Cumulative Distribution Function


Cumulative distribution function : A CDF is used to determine the cumulative probability of all values below a value in a
distribution.

The cumulative distribution function is used to evaluate probability as area under the PDF curve.

Example: Cumulative Distributive function
