Generally, a cumulative process would be one in which new growth is added to old growth, and the larger the material, the more new growth.

The growth of a tree, or an avalanche, or of a snowflake, could be considered.

However, since one is generally looking at the process itself, rather than the objects on which it operates, even erosion could be considered to be a cumulative process.

In the long run, most of these processes run out of material (or the mechanism fails) and the growth of the process stops.

Perhaps this is related to what the Economist calls "the law of diminishing returns'.

How do you complete a cumulative frequency table?

To complete a cumulative frequency table, start by organizing your data in a frequency table, listing the class intervals and their corresponding frequencies. Then, calculate the cumulative frequency for each class interval by adding the frequency of the current interval to the cumulative frequency of the previous interval. Continue this process down the table until all intervals are included, ensuring that the last cumulative frequency equals the total number of observations. Finally, verify that your cumulative frequencies are in non-decreasing order.
