MathRandomGeometric

Generates a pseudorandom variable distributed according to the law of geometric distribution with the p parameter. In case of error it returns NaN.

double  MathRandomGeometric(
   const double  p,              // parameter of the distribution (probability of event occurrence in one test)
   int&          error_code      // variable to store the error code
   );

Generates pseudorandom variables distributed according to the law of geometric distribution with the p parameter. In case of error it returns false. Analog of the rgeom() in R.

bool  MathRandomGeometric(
   const double  p,              // parameter of the distribution (probability of event occurrence in one test)
   const int     data_count,     // amount of required data
   double&       result[]        // array with values of pseudorandom variables
   );

Parameters

p

[in]  Parameter of the distribution (probability of event occurrence in one test).  

error_code

[out]  Variable to store the error code.

data_count

[out]  Amount of required data.

result[]

[out]  Array to obtain the values of pseudorandom variables.
