scipy.stats.uniform() is a Uniform continuous random variable. It is inherited from the of generic methods as an instance of the rv_continuous class. It completes the methods with details specific for this particular distribution.
Parameters :
q : lower and upper tail probability
x : quantiles
loc : [optional]location parameter. Default = 0
scale : [optional]scale parameter. Default = 1
size : [tuple of ints, optional] shape or random variates.
moments : [optional] composed of letters [‘mvsk’]; ‘m’ = mean, ‘v’ = variance, ‘s’ = Fisher’s skew and ‘k’ = Fisher’s kurtosis. (default = ‘mv’).Results : Uniform continuous random variable
Code #1 : Creating Uniform continuous random variable
# importing library from scipy.stats import uniform numargs = uniform .numargs a, b = 0.2, 0.8rv = uniform (a, b) print ("RV : \n", rv) |
Output :
RV : scipy.stats._distn_infrastructure.rv_frozen object at 0x000002A9D9F1E708
Code #2 : Uniform continuous variates and probability distribution
import numpy as np quantile = np.arange (0.01, 1, 0.1) # Random Variates R = uniform .rvs(a, b, size = 10) print ("Random Variates : \n", R) # PDF x = np.linspace(uniform.ppf(0.01, a, b), uniform.ppf(0.99, a, b), 10) R = uniform.pdf(x, 1, 3) print ("\nProbability Distribution : \n", R) |
Output :
