Constructor Detail

DistBinomial

public DistBinomial(StreamInterface stream,
            long n,
            double p)

constructs a Binomial distribution. Number of successes in t independent Bernoulli trials with probability p of sucess on each trial.

Parameters:

stream - the numberstream

n - is the n-parameter of the Binomial distribution

p - is the p-parameter of the Binomial distribution

Method Detail

draw

public long draw()

Description copied from class: DistDiscrete
