| Oct 17, 2016 at 17:37 | comment | added | Aksakal | One thing to be aware of is that your empirical distribution is usually bounded by the way it's constructed, while the CDF may not be. For instance, if you build empirical CDF from observations of Poisson variable, the obtained ECDF is going to be bounded by the highest observed frequency, while the true CDF is unbounded. | |

| Oct 13, 2016 at 18:57 | comment | added | whuber♦ | There is a simple, straightforward, elegant explanation in terms of tickets in a box models: the CDF describes what is in the original box. The ECDF is what you get when you put your sample (which is a set of tickets drawn from the original box: so-called "empirical" data) into an empty box. | |
