Including a Citation

I was about to "correct" the half-closed interval in the first paragraph. Is there a good way to link this to article on Intervals? --Adolphe Youssef (talk) 18:10, 13 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I added a wikilink to handle this. Melcombe (talk) 16:48, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Specific formulation as a function?

What is the definition of the funcrion to be? At present it is in the form f(x) where x is essentially continuous. The reference I added use the form f(j) where j is an integer which indexes the support points of the distribution. Possibly we need both. Melcombe (talk) 16:51, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
