Cumulative Probability Plots

When you have a lot of observations, it is often useful to sort your data on a variable of interest and plot that variable from smallest to largest. This monotonic graph is called a cumulative probability plot. It enables you to see how the values of that variable are distributed. Here are some examples of situations where cumulative probability plots are useful.
