如何生成指数分布的随机数（平均值）？ [英] How to generate random numbers with exponential distribution (with mean)?

问题描述

我试图生成平均等于1的指数分布的随机数。我知道如何获得具有均值和标准差的正态分布的随机数。我们可以通过 normal（mean，standard_deviation）得到它，但是我不知道如何获得指数分布的随机数。

I am trying to generate exponentially distributed random number with mean equal to 1. I know how to get random number for normal distribution with mean and standard deviation. We can get it by normal(mean, standard_deviation), but I don't know how to get random number for exponential distribution.

任何人都可以帮我解决这个问题。

Can anyone help me with this?

推荐答案

标准实际上保证了在STL中可用的指数分布的要求之后存在 RNG ，并且适当地对象类型

With C++11 the standard actually guarantees that there is a RNG following the requirements of exponential-distribution available in the STL, and fittingly the object-type has a very descriptive name.

指数分布随机生成器中的平均值由公式 E [X] = 1计算/ lambda ¹ 。

The mean in an exponentially distributed random generator is calculated by the formula E[X] = 1 / lambda¹.

std :: exponential_distribution 具有将 lambda 作为参数的构造函数，因此我们可以通过计算 lambda 的值并将其传递给我们的生成器，轻松地创建符合规则的对象。

std::exponential_distribution has a constructor taking lambda as an argument, so we can easily create an object following your rules by calculating the value of lambda and passing this to our generator.

std::exponential_distribution rng (1/1); // lambda = 1 / E[X]
