Description

Generates an array of random numbers from a triangular distribution, seeds and generator number passed explicitly

Syntax

int trirnd( double * v, uint n, double xmin, double xmax, double xmed )

Parameters

v

[output] Pointer to a double array, which contain the results

n

[input] The number of pseudo-random numbers to be generated. n>=1

xmin

[input] The end-point of the uniform distribution

xmax

[input] The end-point of the uniform distribution

xmed

[input] The median of the distribution

Return

Return NE_NOERROR(0) on success, otherwise error.

Examples

EX1

//This example is to generate pseudo-random numbers from a triangular distribution
int trirnd_ex1()
{
    int n = 10;
    vector v(n);
 	double xmin = -1.0, xmax = 1.0, xmed = 0.5;
					
    int nRet = trirnd( v, n, xmin, xmax, xmed);
    
    if(0 != nRet)
    	return 0;
    
    for(int i=0;i<n;i++)
        printf("v[%d]: %f\n",i, v[i]);

    return 1;
