area.btwn.cdfs.calc

It calculates the area between the CDFs of two prospects divided by the CDFs
and outcomes segments.

The Stochastic Dominance (SD) is the classical way of comparing two
random prospects, using their distribution functions. Almost Stochastic
Dominance (ASD) has also been developed to cover the SD failures due to
the extreme utility functions. This package focuses on classical and heuristic methods
for testing the first and second SD and ASD methods given the probability mass
function (PMF) of the random prospects. The goal is to apply these methods
easily, efficiently, and effectively on real-world datasets. For more
