Member Function Documentation

double laplace_distribution::cdf

(

double

x

)

const [virtual]

The CDF for this distribution. This method returns P(X < x).

Parameters:

x

the value at which the CDF is evaluated.

Returns:

CDF for this distribution.

Implements continuous_distribution.

double laplace_distribution::inverse_cdf

(

double

p

)

const [virtual]

The inverse CDF for this distribution. This method returns x such that, P(X < x) = p.

Parameters:

p

the cumulative probability.

Returns:

x

Implements continuous_distribution.

double laplace_distribution::mean

(

)

const

Access the mean parameter.

Returns:

the mean parameter.

void laplace_distribution::mean

(

double

m

)

Modify the mean parameter.

Parameters:

a

the new mean value.

double laplace_distribution::scale

(

)

const

Access the scale parameter.

Returns:

the scale parameter.

void laplace_distribution::scale

(

double

s

)

Modify the scale parameter.

Parameters:

b

the new scale value.
