Remarks

Use the DiscreteUniformDistribution class to represent a discrete probability distribution with a probability function that is constant over an interval. The distribution has two parameters: MinValue and MaxValue that specify the boundaries of the interval. Note that MaxValue is an exclusive upper bound: the probability of obtaining the upper bound is zero.

Constructors

DiscreteUniformDistribution(Int32) Constructs a new DiscreteUniformDistribution with the specified upper bound.
DiscreteUniformDistribution(Vector<Double>) Estimates the parameter of the distribution of a variable assuming it follows a discrete uniform distribution.
DiscreteUniformDistribution(Int32, Int32) Constructs a new DiscreteUniformDistribution over the specified interval.
