calculate p-values from cdf and show them in a graph

I have plotted the cdf of my dataset. I would like to know find out some p-values (probabilities), I could do it looking at the graph, however, I would like to know if there is a way to do it with a python code and show it in the graph. I have the following code



x = np.sort(df['Consumption KW'])
y = np.arange(1,len(x)+1)/len(x)
plt.plot(x,y,marker='.',linestyle='none', label='Consumption KW')


And I get something like this:



enter image description here



However, I would like to calculate the value of KW (x-axis) with a probability of 93% (I other words when the CDF(0.93)). The following graph shows what I want but with another data set:



enter image description here



Does anybody know how to calculate p-values and show them on a graph as aforementioned? It would be of great help! Thanks

  • Apparently it worked, however, I need to check the math behind the method, because it is unclear how it calculates the value. On the other hand, how is it possible to draw a line as indicated in the second picture and show that value?

    The best way of being sure would be writing your own implementation, which should be easy enough if you understand the maths. And isn't drawing lines what plt.plot() does? I guess a cursory search would show you some additional conveniences, but you don't really need that.
