DESCRIPTION

CNGeometric is a class for generating geometric distributed random numbers.

Constructors:

CNGeometric();

CNGeometric(CNParam *param);

CNGeometric(double mean, CNRNG *gen);

Initializes a CNGeometric distribution with a base random number generator gen and the value mean as a parameter for the random generator. NOTE: Please do NOT take this parameter as the distrbution`s mean (`MEAN`) value. This can be calculated as:

  MEAN = 1 / ( 1 - mean )

In addition to the member functions required by CNCL, CNGeometric provides:

double mean();

double mean(double x);

Gets/sets the values for mean.

virtual double operator() ();

Draws a geometric distributed random number.
