Struct rand_distr::LogNormal

pub struct LogNormal<N> { /* fields omitted */ }

The log-normal distribution ln N(mean, std_dev**2).

If X is log-normal distributed, then ln(X) is N(mean, std_dev**2) distributed.

Example

use rand_distr::{LogNormal, Distribution};

// mean 2, standard deviation 3
let log_normal = LogNormal::new(2.0, 3.0).unwrap();
let v = log_normal.sample(&mut rand::thread_rng());
println!("{} is from an ln N(2, 9) distribution", v)

Methods

impl<N: Float> LogNormal<N> where
    StandardNormal: Distribution<N>, 

pub fn new(mean: N, std_dev: N) -> Result<LogNormal<N>, Error>

Construct a new LogNormal distribution with the given mean and standard deviation of the logarithm of the distribution.
