normal_distribution::normal_distribution
Constructs the distribution.
normal_distribution(result_type mean0 = result_type(0.0),
result_type sigma0 = result_type(1.0));
explicit normal_distribution(const param_type& par0);
Parameters
mean0
The mean distribution parameter.sigma0
The sigma distribution parameter.par0
The parameter package used to construct the distribution.
Remarks
Precondition: 0.0 <= sigma0
The first constructor constructs an object whose stored value stored_mean holds the value mean0 and whose stored value stored_sigma holds the value sigma0.
The second constructor constructs an object whose stored parameters are initialized from par0.
Example
// std_tr1__random__normal_distribution_construct.cpp
// compile with: /EHsc
#include <random>
#include <iostream>
typedef std::ranlux64_base_01 Myeng;
typedef std::normal_distribution<double> Mydist;
int main()
{
Myeng eng;
Mydist dist(1.5, 2.0);
Mydist::input_type engval = eng();
Mydist::result_type distval = dist(eng);
distval = distval; // to quiet "unused" warnings
engval = engval;
std::cout << "mean == " << dist.mean() << std::endl;
std::cout << "sigma == " << dist.sigma() << std::endl;
dist.reset(); // discard any cached values
std::cout << "a random value == " << dist(eng) << std::endl;
std::cout << "a random value == " << dist(eng) << std::endl;
std::cout << "a random value == " << dist(eng) << std::endl;
return (0);
}
mean == 1.5 sigma == 2 a random value == 0.0275648 a random value == 0.0738393 a random value == 4.47125
