ExponentialDistribution.Sample Method

public static double Sample(
	Random random,
	double scale
)

Public Shared Function Sample ( 
	random As Random,
	scale As Double
) As Double

public:
static double Sample(
	Random^ random, 
	double scale
)

static member Sample : 
        random : Random * 
        scale : float -> float 

Parameters

random  Random

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

scale  Double

A scale parameter.

Return Value

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.
