Direct Known Subclasses:

PascalConvolutionGen

public class PascalGen
extends RandomVariateGenInt

Implements Pascal random variate generators, which is a special case of the negative binomial generator with parameter γ equal to a positive integer. See NegativeBinomialGen for a description.

Constructor Summary

PascalGen(RandomStream s, int n, double p)
Creates a Pascal random variate generator with parameters n and p, using stream s.

PascalGen(RandomStream s, PascalDist dist)
Creates a new generator for the distribution dist, using stream s.

Method Summary

int	getN() Returns the parameter n of this object.
double	getP() Returns the parameter p of this object.
static int	nextInt(RandomStream s, int n, double p) Generates a new variate from the Pascal distribution, with parameters n = n and p = p, using stream s.
