Cumulative Distribution Function | |||
Description | The Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF) helps to learn about the distribution of data by calculating the cumulative probability of a given variable value in a dataset. | ||
Why to use | To calculate the probability of a given variable value by trying to fit it with different distribution functions. | ||
When to use | For numerical variables having positive or negative values. | When not to use | — |
Prerequisites | The data should not contain any missing values. | ||
Input | Numerical variable having any positive or negative value. | Output |
|
