template< class IntType = int > class negative_binomial_distribution; | (since C++11) |
Produces random non-negative integer values i, distributed according to discrete probability function: \(P(i|k, p) = \binom{k + i - 1}{i} \cdot p^k \cdot (1 - p)^i\)P(i|k,p) =
⎛The value represents the number of failures in a series of independent yes/no trials (each succeeds with probability p), before exactly k successes occur.
std::negative_binomial_distribution satisfies RandomNumberDistribution.
| IntType | - | The result type generated by the generator. The effect is undefined if this is not one of short, int, long, long long, unsigned short, unsigned int, unsigned long, or unsigned long long. |
| Member type | Definition |
|---|---|
result_type | IntType |
param_type | the type of the parameter set, see RandomNumberDistribution. |
| constructs new distribution (public member function) |
|
| resets the internal state of the distribution (public member function) |
|
Generation |
|
| generates the next random number in the distribution (public member function) |
|
Characteristics |
|
| returns the distribution parameters (public member function) |
|
| gets or sets the distribution parameter object (public member function) |
|
| returns the minimum potentially generated value (public member function) |
|
| returns the maximum potentially generated value (public member function) |
|
| compares two distribution objects (function) |
|
| performs stream input and output on pseudo-random number distribution (function template) |
