ProbDist class -

Object representing probability distribution

Description

ProbDist is an abstract class representing a probability distribution.

Construction

ProbDist is an abstract class. You cannot create instances of this class directly. You can construct an object in a subclass, such as ProbDistUnivParam or ProbDistUnivKernel, either by calling the subclass constructors (ProbDistUnivParam or ProbDistUnivKernel) or by using the fitdist function.

Methods

cdf Return cumulative distribution function (CDF) for ProbDist object
pdfReturn probability density function (PDF) for ProbDist object
random Generate random number drawn from ProbDist object

Properties

DistNameRead-only string containing probability distribution name of ProbDist object
InputDataRead-only structure containing information about input data to ProbDist object
SupportRead-only structure containing information about support of ProbDist object

Copy Semantics
