I'm plotting the results of monte carlo simulations. What would you have me call it?

Again, there is no such thing as a “Cumulative Probability Distribution”. It’s right up there with Pink Unicorns.

What you showed was something that starts at zero and increases monotonically to 1. THAT is a Cumulative Distribution Function (as I remember those are the only two requirements for both continuous and discrete CDFs). Just wiki the darn thing and learn.

Here, I’ll even do it for you:
