aka PDF

see integral, math notation, probability distribution

definition a probability density function is a function f such that $ f x | dd x {b . a} is the probability of an example being in the interval a -| * -| b

probability density functions are used to describe continuous random variables

properties

$ f x | dd x {@@ . .@@} = 1 where f is a probability density function
