Syntax[ObsoleteAttribute("Please use Accord.Statistics.Distributions.Exponential instead.")] public class ExponentialGenerator : IRandomNumberGenerator
The ExponentialGenerator type exposes the following members.
Constructors| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | ExponentialGenerator(Single) |
Initializes a new instance of the ExponentialGenerator class.
|
| ExponentialGenerator(Single, Int32) |
Initializes a new instance of the ExponentialGenerator class.
|
Properties| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | Mean |
Mean value of the generator.
|
| Rate |
Rate value (inverse mean).
|
| Variance |
Variance value of the generator.
|
Methods| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| Equals | Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
 | Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
| GetHashCode | Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object.) |
| GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
| MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| Next |
Generate next random number
|
| SetSeed |
Set seed of the random numbers generator.
|
| ToString | Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
Extension Methods| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | HasMethod |
Checks whether an object implements a method with the given name.
(Defined by ExtensionMethods.) |
| IsEqual |
Compares two objects for equality, performing an elementwise
comparison if the elements are vectors or matrices.
(Defined by Matrix.) |
| To(Type) | Overloaded.
Converts an object into another type, irrespective of whether
the conversion can be done at compile time or not. This can be
used to convert generic types to numeric types during runtime.
(Defined by ExtensionMethods.) |
| ToT | Overloaded.
Converts an object into another type, irrespective of whether
the conversion can be done at compile time or not. This can be
used to convert generic types to numeric types during runtime.
(Defined by ExtensionMethods.) |
RemarksThe random number generator generates exponential random numbers with specified rate value (lambda).
The generator uses UniformOneGenerator generator as a base to generate random numbers.
Sample usage:
// create instance of random generator IRandomNumberGenerator generator = new ExponentialGenerator( 5 ); // generate random number float randomNumber = generator.Next( );
