Construct gamma distribution
Constructs a gamma_distribution object, adopting the distribution parameters specified either by alpha and beta or by object parm.
Parameters
- alpha
- Parameter alpha (α), that defines the shape of the distribution.
This shall be a positive value (α>0).
result_type is a member type that represents the type of the random numbers generated on each call to operator(). It is defined as an alias of the first class template parameter (RealType).
- beta
- Parameter beta (β), that defines the scale of the distribution.
This shall be a positive value (β>0).
result_type is a member type that represents the type of the random numbers generated on each call to operator(). It is defined as an alias of the first class template parameter (RealType).
- parm
- An object representing the distribution's parameters, obtained by a call to member function param.
param_type is a member type.
