Discrete geometric distribution.
The Geometric
class implements a discrete geometric distribution. The probability
is the only parameter. The operator()
functions returns an non-negative integral value indicating the number of uniform random samples actually drawn before one is obtained that is larger than the given probability. To get this same value as an integer use the asInt function.
It is assumed that the probability is between zero and one (0 <= probability < 1)
and and AipsError exception thrown if this is not true. The remaining function allow you to read and set the parameters.

Construct a random number generator for a geometric uniform distribution.
The first argument is a class that produces random bits. This pointer is NOT taken over by this class and the user is responsible for deleting it. The second argument defines the range of possible return values for this distribution as described in the synopsis.

The destructor is trivial.
virtual Bool casa::Geometric::checkParameters | ( | const Vector< Double > & | parms | ) | const [virtual] |
Implements casa::Random.
virtual Double casa::Geometric::operator() | ( | ) | [virtual] |
Returns a value from the geometric uniform distribution.
The returned value is a non-negative integer and using the asInt function bypasses the conversion to a floating point number.
Implements casa::Random.
virtual Vector<Double> casa::Geometric::parameters | ( | ) | const [virtual] |
Implements casa::Random.
Double casa::Geometric::probability | ( | ) | const [inline] |

virtual void casa::Geometric::setParameters | ( | const Vector< Double > & | parms | ) | [virtual] |
These function allow you to manipulate the parameter (probability) described above through the base class.
The Vectors must always be of length one.
