The continuous uniform distribution or rectangular distribution is a family of symmetric probability distributions such that for each member of the family, all intervals of the same length on the distribution's support are equally probable. The support is defined by the two parameters, a and b, which are its minimum and maximum values. The distribution is often abbreviated U(a,b). It is the maximum entropy probability distribution for a random variate X under no constraint other than that it is contained in the distribution's support.

The following example demonstrates how to create an uniform distribution defined over the interval [0.42, 1.1].
// Create a new uniform continuous distribution from 0.42 to 1.1 var uniform = new UniformContinuousDistribution(a: 0.42, b: 1.1); // Common measures double mean = uniform.Mean; // 0.76 double median = uniform.Median; // 0.76 double var = uniform.Variance; // 0.03853333333333335 // Cumulative distribution functions double cdf = uniform.DistributionFunction(x: 0.9); // 0.70588235294117641 double ccdf = uniform.ComplementaryDistributionFunction(x: 0.9); // 0.29411764705882359 double icdf = uniform.InverseDistributionFunction(p: cdf); // 0.9 // Probability density functions double pdf = uniform.ProbabilityDensityFunction(x: 0.9); // 1.4705882352941173 double lpdf = uniform.LogProbabilityDensityFunction(x: 0.9); // 0.38566248081198445 // Hazard (failure rate) functions double hf = uniform.HazardFunction(x: 0.9); // 4.9999999999999973 double chf = uniform.CumulativeHazardFunction(x: 0.9); // 1.2237754316221154 // String representation string str = uniform.ToString(CultureInfo.InvariantCulture); // "U(x; a = 0.42, b = 1.1)"
