Plotting PDF for Inter Packet Arrival Times

[mmmd_yaseen]

Hi Everyone,

Iam new one to join the MATLAB .My task is to plot PDF for the given data from the .dat file
I have three columns which contains as below like .The first column says port no , second and third is the inter packet arrival times of packet 1 and packet 2 . The whole data is huge ,so i have taken only few sample of it and pasted here . out this I need to plot PDF of the second and third column alone. Also see the attached plot . I need to reproduce some what similar to it. Kindly help me in how to proceed with this.

What have you attempted so far?

Iam new to MATLAB .As of now i have just imported the data into the matlab. I just playing around with the PDF and hist command to reproduce the somewhat similar to it. But i haven't achieved it. So if you could explain the above commands with regards to the above data and graph that would be helpful and encouraging .

Thanks

Forget about Matlab for a minute and focus on the mathematics. Suppose that you have some data of the form

$$X_1, X_2, \ldots, X_n \sim F$$

i.e., you have n observations that you think are distributed according to some distribution F. How do you obtain the PDF for the distribution F from the data?
