What is Probability Density Function (PDF)?
The derivative of Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF) w.r.t. some dummy variable is called as probability density function (PDF).Probability density function can be defined mathematically as-
Relation between PDF and CDF (Formula of PDF) |
Now we will discuss the properties of probability density function. The derivation of properties of PDF is also provided here.

Properties of Probability Density Function (PDF) with Derivation
Property 1- Probability density function is always non-zero for all values of x.PDF Property 1 with Proof |
Property 2- The area under the PDF curve is always equal to Unity i.e. one.
PDF Property 2 With Proof |
Property 3- It is possible to get Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF) by integrating PDF.
PDF Property 3 With Proof |
Property 4- Probability of the event {x1< X<= x2} is given by the area under the PDF curve in
{x1< X<= x2} range.
