Probability density function
|
A function used to compute probabilities for a continuous random variable
|
|
|
Uniform probability distribution
|
A continuous probability distribution for which the probability that the random variable will assume a value in any interval is the same for each interval of equal length
|
|
|
Normal probability distribution
|
A continuous probability distribution. Its probability density function is bell-shaped and determined by its mean and standard deviation
|
|
|
Standard normal probability distribution
|
A normal distribution with a mean of zero and a standard deviation of one
|
|
|
Continuity correction factor
|
A value of .5 that is added to or subtracted from a value of x when the continuous normal distribution is used to approximate the discrete binomial distribution
|
|
|
Exponential probability distribution
|
A continuous probability distribution that is useful in computing probability for the time it takes to complete a task
