> "cumulativeProbability(double,double)" to "probability(double,double)"
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: MATH-839
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-839
> Project: Commons Math
> Issue Type: Task

> Fix For: 4.0

>
> Cf. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cumulative_distribution_function
> Cf. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probability_density_function
> The method currently named "cumulativeProbability(double,double)" in fact
> provides the _probability_ of the variable to be within the given interval.
> The name "probability" would thus be more accurate (and shorter).
