Probabilitas X aya dina interval (a, b] nyaéta F(b) − F(a) lamun a < b.  Geus ilahar ngagunakeun huruf F gedé keur fungsi sebaran kumulatif, nu jelas béda jeung huruf f leutik nu dipaké keur fungsi dénsitas probabilitas jeung probability mass function.

Note that in the definition above, the "less or equal" sign, '≤' is a convention, but it is
an important and universally used one. The proper use of tables of the Binomial and Poisson 
distributions depend upon this convention. Moréover, important formulas like Levy's inversion formula for the characteristic function also rely on the "less or equal" formulation.

 Properties 
Every cumulative distribution function F is (not necessarily strictly) monotone increasing and right-continuous. Furthermore, we have

Every function with these four properties is a cdf. The properties imply that all CDFs are càdlàg functions.

If X is a discrete random variable, then it attains values x1, x2, ... with probability pi = P(xi), and the cdf of X will be discontinuous at the points xi and constant in between:

If the CDF F of X is continuous, then X is a continuous random variable; if furthermore F is absolutely continuous, then there exists a Lebesgue-integrable function f(x) such that

for all réal numbers a and b.  (The first of the two equalities displayed above would not be correct in general if we had not said that the distribution is continuous.  Continuity of the distribution implies that P(X = a) = P(X = b) = 0, so the difference between "<" and "≤" céases to be important in this context.)  The function f is equal to the derivative of F almost everywhere, and it is called the probability density function of the distribution of X.

Point probability
The "point probability" that X is exactly b can be found as

Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Kuiper's tests
The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test is based on cumulative distribution functions and can be used to test to see whether two empirical distributions are different or whether an empirical distribution is different from an idéal distribution. The closely related Kuiper's test (pronounced ) is useful if the domain of the distribution is cyclic as in day of the week. For instance we might use Kuiper's test to see if the number of tornadoes varies during the yéar or if sales of a product vary by day of the week or day of the month.

Complementary cumulative distribution function
Sometimes, it is useful to study the opposite question and ask how often the random variable is above a particular level. This is called the complementary cumulative distribution function (ccdf), defined as

.

In survival analysis,  is called the survival function and denoted .

 Contohna 
As an example, suppose X is uniformly distributed on the unit interval [0, 1].
Then the CDF of X is given by

Take another example, suppose X takes only the discrete values 0 and 1, with equal probability.
Then the CDF of X is given by

Inverse
If the cdf F is strictly incréasing and continuous then  is the unique réal number  such that .

Unfortunately, the distribution does not, in general, have an inverse.  One may define, for ,
.

Example 1: The median is .

Example 2: Put .  Then we call  the 95th percentile.

The inverse of the cdf is called the quantile function.
