Sorry, you are right, meant to say cumulative density function. (Or survival function, as in the case of exp(-x).)

- amluto 7y agoTrue, but this has never felt like math magic to me. Usually you come up with a magical function for the PDF or similar, and then normalize it so that the CDF has the right integral. That last bit is just drudgery, not magic. If you’re lucky, you can work with unnormalized distributions.
