Well, the Wikipedia formula looks correct to me. If we substitute k = 2 in their formula for the pdf (which agrees with the task description so there's no notational difference here) we get (since gamma(1) = 1):
Well, the Wikipedia formula looks correct to me. If we substitute k = 2 in their formula for the pdf (which agrees with the task description so there's no notational difference here) we get (since gamma(1) = 1):


:: f(x; k) = exp(-x/2) / 2
:: f(x; 2) = exp(-x/2) / 2


and if we integrate that we get:
and if we integrate that we get:


:: F(x; k) = 1 - exp(-x/2)
:: F(x; 2) = 1 - exp(-x/2)
