BurrDistribution.Sample Method

public static double Sample(
	Random random,
	double c,
	double k,
	double scale = 1
)

Public Shared Function Sample ( 
	random As Random,
	c As Double,
	k As Double,
	Optional scale As Double = 1
) As Double

public:
static double Sample(
	Random^ random, 
	double c, 
	double k, 
	double scale = 1
)

static member Sample : 
        random : Random * 
        c : float * 
        k : float * 
        ?scale : float 
(* Defaults:
        let _scale = defaultArg scale 1
*)
-> float 

Parameters

random  Random

The Random derived random number generator used to generate the sample.

c  Double

The first shape parameter of the distribution.

k  Double

The second shape parameter of the distribution.

scale  Double  (Optional)

The scale parameter of the distribution.

Return Value

c and k must be strictly greater than zero.

This method is useful when only a single random sample is required, or if the parameters of the distribution change often. To obtain a large number of samples from a distribution with identical parameters, create an instance of the class and call the Sample() method repeatedly.
