| Mar 31, 2019 at 18:14 | comment | added | Voronin_10 | Thank you gunes, this helps a lot. But I have a (naive, maybe) question. The distribution function, isn´t it supposed to be the cumulative of the density function? I mean, for the density function, f(1)+f(2)=0.66, but for the distribution, according to your F(x), then F(2)=0.8. Shouldn´t these values be the same? | |
