Least Error Sample Distribution Function, Vassili F. Pastushenko
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
Email: The empirical distribution function (ecdf) is unbiased in the usual sense, but shows certain order bias. Pyke suggested discrete ecdf using expectations of order statistics. Piecewise constant optimal ecdf saves 200%/N of sample size N. Results are compared with linear interpolation for U(0, 1), which require up to sixfold shorter samples at the same accuracy.

On The Expected Values Of Distribution Of The Sample Range Of Order Statistics From The Geometric Distribution, Sinan Calik, Cemil Colak, Ayse Turan
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
The expected values of the distribution of the sample range of order statistics from the geometric distribution are presented. For n up to 10, algebraic expressions for the expected values are obtained. Using the algebraic expressions, expected values based on the p and n values can be easily computed.
