Tiheysfunktioteoria refers to the mathematical study of probability density functions. A probability density function (PDF), often denoted as f(x), is a function that describes the likelihood of a continuous random variable taking on a given value. Unlike probability mass functions for discrete variables, the value of a PDF at a specific point does not represent the probability of that exact outcome, as the probability of any single point in a continuous distribution is zero. Instead, the integral of the PDF over an interval gives the probability that the random variable falls within that interval.

The key properties of a probability density function are that it must be non-negative everywhere (f(x) ≥ 0 for all x) and its integral over its entire domain must equal one. This normalization condition ensures that the total probability of all possible outcomes is accounted for. Tiheysfunktioteoria explores various types of PDFs, such as the uniform distribution, normal distribution, exponential distribution, and many others, each characterized by specific mathematical forms and parameters that dictate their shape and spread. The theory also delves into methods for calculating expected values, variances, and other statistical moments from PDFs, which are crucial for understanding the behavior of random phenomena in fields like statistics, physics, engineering, and finance.
