Abstract

In this note we consider confidence interval based on Kolmogorov-Smirnov statistic. In order to obtain confidence interval we need percentage points of the statistics. Bootstrap method is examined whether it is useful to determine the points. It is concluded that the method is useful for observations with many ties, whereas it gives less conserbative points for continuous distributions.
