std::fisher_f_distribution(3)

NAME
std::fisher_f_distribution - std::fisher_f_distribution

Synopsis
   Defined in header <random>
   template< class RealType = double > (since C++11)
   class fisher_f_distribution;
   Produces random numbers according to the f-distribution:
           \(P(x;m,n)=\frac{\Gamma{(\frac{m+n}{2})}
           }{\Gamma{(\frac{m}{2})}\Gamma{(\frac{n}{2})} }{(\frac{m}{n})}^{\frac{m}{2}
           }x^{\frac{m}{2}-1}{(1+\frac{m}{n}x)}^{-\frac{m+n}{2} }\)P(x;m,n) =
           Γ((m+n)/2)
           Γ(m/2) Γ(n/2)
           (m/n)m/2
           x(m/2)-1
           (1+
           mx
           n
           )-(m+n)/2
   \(\small m\)m and \(\small n\)n are the degrees of freedom.
   std::fisher_f_distribution satisfies all requirements of RandomNumberDistribution.

Template parameters
   RealType - The result type generated by the generator. The effect is undefined if
              this is not one of float, double, or long double.

Member types
   Member type Definition
   result_type(C++11) RealType
   param_type(C++11) the type of the parameter set, see RandomNumberDistribution.

Member functions
   constructor constructs new distribution
   (C++11) (public member function)
   reset resets the internal state of the distribution
   (C++11) (public member function)

Generation
   operator() generates the next random number in the distribution
   (C++11) (public member function)

Characteristics
   m returns the distribution parameters
   n (public member function)
   param gets or sets the distribution parameter object
   (C++11) (public member function)
   min returns the minimum potentially generated value
   (C++11) (public member function)
   max returns the maximum potentially generated value
   (C++11) (public member function)

Non-member functions
   operator==
   operator!= compares two distribution objects
   (C++11) (function)
   (C++11)(removed in C++20)
   operator<< performs stream input and output on pseudo-random number
   operator>> distribution
   (C++11) (function template)
