GeometricDistribution Class

Represents the geometric distribution.

C# 
[SerializableAttribute]
public class GeometricDistribution : DiscreteDistribution
Inheritance
Object  →  Distribution  →  DiscreteDistribution  →  GeometricDistribution

Remarks

The geometric distribution characterizes the probability of the number of trials required to achieve the first success, each trial having a probability probability of being successful.

The geometric distribution is the discrete form of the Exponential distribution.

Constructors

GeometricDistribution(Double) Constructs a new GeometricDistribution with the specified probability of success. The distribution uses the default random number generator to generate samples.
GeometricDistribution(Vector<Double>) Estimates the parameter of the distribution of a variable assuming it follows a geometric distribution.
