Computes the discrete cumulative distribution function (CDF), or the probability that the random variate X, where X describes the selected distribution type, takes on a value less than or equal to x. You must manually select the polymorphic instance to use.

Inputs/Outputs

  • cdbl.png x —

    x is the number of successes out of the sample of n items drawn from the population.

  • ci32.png M —

    M is the number of elements in the population.

  • ci32.png k —

    k is the number of successes in the population.

  • ci32.png n —

    n is the number of items drawn without replacement.

  • idbl.png cdf(x) —

    cdf(x) returns the cumulative probability that the random variate X, where X describes the selected distribution type, has a value less than or equal to x.

  • ii32.png error —

    error returns any error or warning from the VI. You can wire error to the Error Cluster From Error Code VI to convert the error code or warning into an error cluster.

    • When you use the Bernoulli instance of this function, X represents a Bernoulli-distributed variate with one of two possible outcomes: success (x = 1) or failure (x = 0). The Bernoulli probability parameter p is the probability of success of a single trial or experiment.
