R provides a vast number of functions for working with statistical distributions. These can be either discrete or continuous. Statistical functions are important, because in statistics we generally need to assume that the data is distributed to some distribution.
Let's assume we have an variable distributed according to a specific distribution. The density function is a function that maps every value in the domain in the distribution of the variable with a probability. The cumulative density function (CDF) returns the cumulative probability mass for each value of . The quantile function expects a ...
