Can I use the kstest function to check if the data have a CDF defined by myself?

Hi!
I have a vector of random variables. I want to check whether they are generated from a power law distribution. I have my own function to calculate their CDF's. Can I still use this CDF matrix for the kstest function in matlab? (power law distribution is not included in the list of CDF distributions available for the function)
Thanks.

Yes, if you have a function that calculates the CDF of the distribution you can calculate the CDF at your sample values and pass this into the kstest function.
For a column vector of sample values x and CDF function F(x), create a matrix such that:
myCDF = [x F(x)];
and call:
kstest(x,'CDF',myCDF);
