{{alias}}( μ, β )
|
|
Returns a pseudorandom number drawn from a Gumbel distribution.
|
|
|
|
If `μ` or `β` is `NaN` or `β <= 0`, the function returns `NaN`.
|
|
|
|
Parameters
|
|
----------
|
|
μ: number
|
|
Mean.
|
|
|
|
β: number
|
|
Scale parameter.
|
|
|
|
Returns
|
|
-------
|
|
r: number
|
|
Pseudorandom number.
|
|
|
|
Examples
|
|
--------
|
|
> var r = {{alias}}( 2.0, 5.0 );
|
|
|
|
|
|
{{alias}}.factory( [μ, β, ][options] )
|
|
Returns a pseudorandom number generator (PRNG) for generating pseudorandom
|
|
numbers drawn from a Gumbel distribution.
|
|
|
|
If provided `μ` and `β`, the returned PRNG returns random variates drawn
|
|
from the specified distribution.
|
|
|
|
If not provided `μ` and `β`, the returned PRNG requires that both `μ` and
|
|
`β` be provided at each invocation.
|
|
|
|
Parameters
|
|
----------
|
|
μ: number (optional)
|
|
Mean.
|
|
|
|
β: number (optional)
|
|
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 pseudorandom number generator, 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 generator has exclusive control over
|
|
its internal state. Default: true.
|
|
|
|
Returns
|
|
-------
|
|
rand: Function
|
|
Pseudorandom number generator (PRNG).
|
|
|
|
Examples
|
|
--------
|
|
// Basic usage:
|
|
> var rand = {{alias}}.factory();
|
|
> var r = rand( 0.1, 1.5 );
|
|
> r = rand( 2.0, 3.14 );
|
|
|
|
// Provide `μ` and `β`:
|
|
> rand = {{alias}}.factory( 0.1, 1.5 );
|
|
> r = rand();
|
|
> r = rand();
|
|
|
|
|
|
