triangularAV

This function is used for specifying distribution in the form like "roughly this, +/- 20%".

Is equivalent to triangular( average * (1 - variability), average * (1 + variability) ).

triangularAV(double average, double variability)

Description

Generates a sample of the Triangular distribution with mode set to average.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
average	double	the most likely x value
variability	double	the percent [0...1] of average representing the half of distribution range, where the generated sample falls

Result

Type	Description
double	the generated sample

triangularAV(double average, double variability, Random r)

Description

Generates a sample of the Triangular distribution with mode set to average, and also uses the specified random number generator.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
average	double	the most likely x value
variability	double	the percent [0...1] of average representing the half of distribution range, where the generated sample falls
r	Random	the random number generator

Result

Type	Description
double	the generated sample
