Uniform

Overview


The unform distribution is a distribution where all values are equally likely. For continuous variables, this means that any value from a given range {% (a \leq x \leq b) %} are equally likely.

Moments


If {% X %} is distributed uniformly over the interval {% [a,b] %}, then the moments of the distribution are given by
{% \mu = \frac{1}{2}(a+b) %}
{% \sigma^2 = \frac{1}{12}(b-a)^2 %}

Simulating


Simulating the Uniform Distribution forms the foundation of building statistical simulations.

Library


The Uniform Distribution Library provides functions for computations using the uniform distribution.
