metasyn.distribution.exponential.ExponentialDistribution

class metasyn.distribution.exponential.ExponentialDistribution(rate)

Exponential distribution for floating point type.

This class implements the exponential distribution with the rate as its single parameter.

Parameters:

rate (float) – Rate of the exponential distribution. This is equal to 1/mean of the distribution.

Examples

>>> ExponentialDistribution(rate=2.4)
