Constructor Details

DistUniform

public DistUniform(StreamInterface stream,
 double min,
 double max)

constructs a new uniform distribution. min and max are real numbers with min less than max. min is a location parameter, max-min is a scale parameter.

Parameters:

stream - StreamInterface; the random number stream

min - double; the minimum value

max - double; the maximum value

Method Details

draw

public double draw()

draws the next stream value according to the probability of this this distribution.

Specified by:

draw in class DistContinuous

Returns:

the next double value drawn.

getProbabilityDensity

public double getProbabilityDensity(double x)

returns the probability density value of a value x.

Specified by:

getProbabilityDensity in class DistContinuous

Parameters:

x - double; the value for which the density function needs to be calculated

Returns:

double; the probability density for value x

getMin

public double getMin()

Return the minimum value.

Returns:

double; the minimum value

getMax

public double getMax()

Return the maximum value.

Returns:

double; the maximum value

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Object
