| probability density function |
In mathematics, a probability density function (pdf) serves to represent a probability distribution in terms of integrals. Any function that is everywhere non-negative and whose integral from −∞ to +∞ is equal to 1 is a probability density function. If a probability distribution has density f(x), then intuitively the infinitesimal interval [x, x + dx] has probability f(x) dx. ...
