Method Summary
 double getDistribution(double aValue)
          In probability theory and statistics, the cumulative distribution function (CDF), or just distribution function, describes the probability that a real-valued random variable X with a given probability distribution will be found at a value less than or equal to x.

          In probability theory, a probability density function (pdf), or density of a continuous random variable is a function that describes the relative likelihood for this random variable to occur at a given point.
 double getQuantile(double aProbality)
          The quantile function, for any distribution, is defined for real variables between zero and one and is mathematically the inverse of the cumulative distribution function.

Constructor Detail

Uniform

public Uniform()

Uniform

public Uniform(double aLower,
               double aRange)
Method Detail

randomInteger

public static int randomInteger(int aLimit)
Returns:
An integer: 0 <= ? < aLimit

randomInteger

public static int randomInteger(int aLower,
                                int aHigher)
Returns:
An integer: aLower <= ? < aHigher

getDistribution

public double getDistribution(double aValue)
Description copied from interface: ContinuousDistribution
In probability theory and statistics, the cumulative distribution function (CDF), or just distribution function, describes the probability that a real-valued random variable X with a given probability distribution will be found at a value less than or equal to x. Intuitively, it is the "area so far" function of the probability distribution. Cumulative distribution functions are also used to specify the distribution of multivariate random variables. WikipediA

Parameters:
aValue - x
Returns:
P(<=x)

getExpected

public double getExpected()

getProbability

public double getProbability(double aValue)
Description copied from interface: ContinuousDistribution
In probability theory, a probability density function (pdf), or density of a continuous random variable is a function that describes the relative likelihood for this random variable to occur at a given point. The probability for the random variable to fall within a particular region is given by the integral of this variable’s density over the region. The probability density function is nonnegative everywhere, and its integral over the entire space is equal to one. WikipediA

Parameters:
aValue - x
Returns:
P(x)

getQuantile

public double getQuantile(double aProbality)
Description copied from interface: ContinuousDistribution
The quantile function, for any distribution, is defined for real variables between zero and one and is mathematically the inverse of the cumulative distribution function. WikipediA The input probability absolutely has to be [0.0, 1.0], but values close to 0.0 and 1.0 may be problematic

Parameters:
aProbality - P(<=x)
Returns:
x

getVariance

public double getVariance()
Description copied from class: RandomNumber
Subclasses must override either getStandardDeviation() or getVariance()!

Specified by:
getVariance in interface Distribution
Overrides:
getVariance in class RandomNumber
