gumbel

Class is used for generation of Gumbel distributed real types random numbers.

Description

The class object is used in the oneapi::mkl::rng::generate() function to provide random numbers Gumbel distributed with displacement \(a\), and scalefactor \((b, \beta)\), where \(a, \beta \in R; \beta > 0\).

The probability distribution is given by:

\[f_{a, \beta}(x) = \frac{1}{\beta}exp(-\frac{x - a}{\beta})exp(-exp(\frac{x - a}{\beta})), x \in R.\]

The cumulative distribution function is as follows:

\[F_{a, \beta}(x) = 1 - exp(-exp(\frac{x - a}{\beta})), x \in R.\]

class gumbel

Syntax

namespace oneapi::mkl::rng {
template<typename RealType = float, typename Method = gumbel_method::by_default>
class gumbel {
public:
    using method_type = Method;
    using result_type = RealType;
    gumbel();
    explicit gumbel(RealType a, RealType b);
    RealType a() const;
    RealType b() const;
};
}

Template parameters

typename RealType
Type of the produced values. Supported types:
  • float
