{{alias}}( α, β[, options] )
|
||
Returns an iterator for generating pseudorandom numbers drawn from an
|
||
inverse gamma distribution.
|
||
|
||
If an environment supports Symbol.iterator, the returned iterator is
|
||
iterable.
|
||
|
||
The function throws an error if `α <= 0` or `β <= 0`.
|
||
|
||
Parameters
|
||
----------
|
||
α: number
|
||
Shape parameter.
|
||
|
||
β: number
|
||
Scale parameter.
|
||
|
||
options: Object (optional)
|
||
Options.
|
||
|
||
options.prng: Function (optional)
|
||
Pseudorandom number generator (PRNG) for generating uniformly
|
||
distributed pseudorandom numbers on the interval `[0,1)`. If provided,
|
||
the `state` and `seed` options are ignored. In order to seed the
|
||
returned iterator, one must seed the provided `prng` (assuming the
|
||
provided `prng` is seedable).
|
||
|
||
options.seed: integer|ArrayLikeObject<integer> (optional)
|
||
Pseudorandom number generator seed. The seed may be either a positive
|
||
unsigned 32-bit integer or, for arbitrary length seeds, an array-like
|
||
object containing unsigned 32-bit integers.
|
||
|
||
options.state: Uint32Array (optional)
|
||
Pseudorandom number generator state. If provided, the `seed` option is
|
||
ignored.
|
||
|
||
options.copy: boolean (optional)
|
||
Boolean indicating whether to copy a provided pseudorandom number
|
||
generator state. Setting this option to `false` allows sharing state
|
||
between two or more pseudorandom number generators. Setting this option
|
||
to `true` ensures that a returned iterator has exclusive control over
|
||
its internal state. Default: true.
|
||
|
||
options.iter: integer (optional)
|
||
Number of iterations.
|
||
|
||
Returns
|
||
-------
|
||
iterator: Object
|
||
Iterator.
|
||
|
||
iterator.next(): Function
|
||
Returns an iterator protocol-compliant object containing the next
|
||
iterated value (if one exists) and a boolean flag indicating whether the
|
||
iterator is finished.
|
||
|
||
iterator.return( [value] ): Function
|
||
Finishes an iterator and returns a provided value.
|
||
|
||
iterator.PRNG: Function
|
||
Underlying pseudorandom number generator.
|
||
|
||
iterator.seed: Uint32Array|null
|
||
Pseudorandom number generator seed.
|
||
|
||
iterator.seedLength: integer|null
|
||
Length of generator seed.
|
||
|
||
iterator.state: Uint32Array|null
|
||
Generator state.
|
||
|
||
iterator.stateLength: integer|null
|
||
Length of generator state.
|
||
|
||
iterator.byteLength: integer|null
|
||
Size (in bytes) of generator state.
|
||
|
||
Examples
|
||
--------
|
||
> var it = {{alias}}( 1.0, 1.0 );
|
||
> var r = it.next().value
|
||
<number>
|
||
> r = it.next().value
|
||
<number>
