Constructor Details

LogNormalSampler

public LogNormalSampler(NormalizedGaussianSampler gaussian,
 double mu,
 double sigma)

Create an instance.

Parameters:

gaussian - N(0,1) generator.

mu - Mean of the natural logarithm of the distribution values.

sigma - Standard deviation of the natural logarithm of the distribution values.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if sigma <= 0.

Method Details

sample

public double sample()

Creates a double sample.

Specified by:

sample in interface ContinuousSampler

Returns:

a sample.

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Object

withUniformRandomProvider

public SharedStateContinuousSampler withUniformRandomProvider(UniformRandomProvider rng)

Create a new instance of the sampler with the same underlying state using the given uniform random provider as the source of randomness.

Note: This function is available if the underlying NormalizedGaussianSampler is a SharedStateSampler. Otherwise a run-time exception is thrown.

Specified by:

withUniformRandomProvider in interface SharedStateSampler<SharedStateContinuousSampler>

Parameters:

rng - Generator of uniformly distributed random numbers.

Returns:

the sampler

Throws:

UnsupportedOperationException - if the underlying sampler is not a SharedStateSampler or does not return a NormalizedGaussianSampler when sharing state.

Since:

1.3

of

public static SharedStateContinuousSampler of(NormalizedGaussianSampler gaussian,
 double mu,
 double sigma)

Create a new log-normal distribution sampler.

Note: The shared-state functionality is available if the NormalizedGaussianSampler is a SharedStateSampler. Otherwise a run-time exception will be thrown when the sampler is used to share state.

Parameters:

gaussian - N(0,1) generator.

mu - Mean of the natural logarithm of the distribution values.

sigma - Standard deviation of the natural logarithm of the distribution values.

Returns:

the sampler

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if sigma <= 0.

Since:

1.3
