English: Marginal probability density functions for order statistics for a sample of size n=5 independent identically exponentially distributed random variables. Scale parameter is unity.
exponential scale parameter (characteristic life) for standard form:
eta = 1.0
exponential pdf and cdf:
pdf (t) = eta * exp (-eta * t)
cdf (t) = 1 - exp (-eta * t)
