Continuous probability distributions - Probability density functions

3 important questions on Continuous probability distributions - Probability density functions

How do you call a function f(x) such that
1) f(x) is non-negative
2) the total area under f(x) is 1
3) the area under f(x) between the lines x=a and x=b gives the probability that the value of x is between a and b

Probability density function (pdf)

How do you call a pdf with density function f(x) = 1/(b-a) on the interval a to b?
