      • getMean

        public double getMean()

      • density

        public double density​(double x)
        Returns the probability density function (PDF) of this distribution evaluated at the specified point x. In general, the PDF is the derivative of the CDF. If the derivative does not exist at x, then an appropriate replacement should be returned, e.g. Double.POSITIVE_INFINITY, Double.NaN, or the limit inferior or limit superior of the difference quotient.
        Parameters:
        x - the point at which the PDF is evaluated
        Returns:
        the value of the probability density function at point x
      • cumulativeProbability

        public double cumulativeProbability​(double x)
        For a random variable X whose values are distributed according to this distribution, this method returns P(X <= x). In other words, this method represents the (cumulative) distribution function (CDF) for this distribution.

        If x is more than 40 standard deviations from the mean, 0 or 1 is returned, as in these cases the actual value is within Double.MIN_VALUE of 0 or 1.

        Parameters:
        x - the point at which the CDF is evaluated
        Returns:
        the probability that a random variable with this distribution takes a value less than or equal to x

        Computes the quantile function of this distribution. For a random variable X distributed according to this distribution, the returned value is
        • inf{x in R | P(X<=x) >= p} for 0 < p <= 1,
        • inf{x in R | P(X<=x) > 0} for p = 0.

        For a random variable X whose values are distributed according to this distribution, this method returns P(x0 < X <= x1).
        Parameters:
        x0 - the exclusive lower bound

        The default implementation uses the identity P(x0 < X <= x1) = P(X <= x1) - P(X <= x0)
