Help me understand the quantile (inverse CDF) function
May 16, 2016 · The CDF (cumulative distribution function) is more convenient as the function plotted is increasing along the x-axis and the y-axis. Extracting the quantile, that is, the variate …
distributions - Finding the PDF given the CDF - Cross Validated
Jul 19, 2010 · How can I find the PDF (probability density function) of a distribution given the CDF (cumulative distribution function)?
calculus - How is the derivative of the CDF of a random variable $X ...
This function, $F (x)$, is called the "cumulative distribution function," or CDF. It is defined in this manner, so the relationship between CDF and PDF is not coincidental -- it is by design.
