template< class RealType = double > class piecewise_constant_distribution; | (since C++11) |
std::piecewise_constant_distribution produces random floating-point numbers, which are uniformly distributed within each of the several subintervals [b
i, b
i+1), each with its own weight w
i. The set of interval boundaries and the set of weights are the parameters of this distribution. The probability density for any b.
| w i |
| S (b i+1 - b i) |
std::piecewise_constant_distribution satisfies all requirements of RandomNumberDistribution.
| RealType | - | The result type generated by the generator. The effect is undefined if this is not one of float, double, or long double. |
| Member type | Definition |
|---|---|
result_type | RealType |
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) |
