Kolmogorov–Smirnov test: Kolmogorov distribution, Implementations & Overview

In statistics, the Kolmogorov–Smirnov test (also K–S test or KS test) is a nonparametric test of the equality of continuous (or discontinuous, see Section 2.2), one-dimensional probability distributions. It can be used to test whether a sample came from a given reference probability distribution (one-sample K–S test), or to test whether or not two…
