Evaluate the cumulative distribution function of a probability distribution

Generic function for computing probabilities from distribution objects based on the cumulative distribution function (CDF).

Usage

cdf(d, x, drop = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

d

An object. The package provides methods for distribution objects such as those from Normal() or Binomial() etc.

x

A vector of elements whose cumulative probabilities you would like to determine given the distribution d.

drop

logical. Should the result be simplified to a vector if possible?

...

Arguments passed to methods. Unevaluated arguments will generate a warning to catch mispellings or other possible errors.

Value

Probabilities corresponding to the vector x.

Examples

## distribution object
X <- Normal()
## probabilities from CDF
cdf(X, c(1, 2, 3, 4, 5))
#> [1] 0.8413447 0.9772499 0.9986501 0.9999683 0.9999997
