Weibull Distribution
A versatile distribution for reliability engineering, modeling time-to-failure and survival analysis.
Probability Density FunctionPDF = f(x)
Cumulative Distribution FunctionCDF = F(x)
Probability in an Interval
Compute the probability that X falls between two values. For continuous distributions, this is the shaded area under the PDF (≤ vs < doesn't matter).
P(a ≤ X ≤ b)
Quantiles (Inverse CDF)
Pick a probability p and read the corresponding quantile xₚ where F(xₚ) = p.
Quantile xₚ (where F(xₚ) = p)
In Weibull Distribution, selected probability p: 0.9500 (95.00%)
Parameters
Adjust the parameters and (optionally) add up to 3 curves to compare different settings side‑by‑side.

Estimating parameters from data
If you’re fitting this distribution to observed data, these are common plug‑in estimates you can start with.
Scale (λ)
63.2% of failures occur by time λ when k = 1.
Shape (k)
Determines the failure rate behavior over time.
