scipy.stats.dlaplace() is a Laplacian discrete random variable. It is inherited from the of generic methods as an instance of the rv_discrete class. It completes the methods with details specific for this particular distribution.
Parameters :
x : quantiles
loc : [optional]location parameter. Default = 0
scale : [optional]scale parameter. Default = 1
moments : [optional] composed of letters [‘mvsk’]; ‘m’ = mean, ‘v’ = variance, ‘s’ = Fisher’s skew and ‘k’ = Fisher’s kurtosis. (default = ‘mv’).Results : Laplacian discrete random variable
Code #1 : Creating Laplacian discrete random variable
# importing library from scipy.stats import dlaplace numargs = dlaplace .numargs a, b = 0.2, 0.8rv = dlaplace (a, b) print ("RV : \n", rv) |
Output :
RV : scipy.stats._distn_infrastructure.rv_frozen object at 0x0000016A4C4B4908
Code #2 : Laplacian discrete variates and probability distribution
import numpy as np quantile = np.arange (0.01, 1, 0.1) # Random Variates R = dlaplace .rvs(a, b, size = 10) print ("Random Variates : \n", R) # PDF x = np.linspace(dlaplace.ppf(0.01, a, b), dlaplace.ppf(0.99, a, b), 10) R = dlaplace.ppf(x, 1, 3) print ("\nProbability Distribution : \n", R) |
Output :
Random Variates : [ 2 0 1 3 14 0 1 14 6 0] Probability Distribution : [nan nan nan nan nan nan nan nan nan nan]
Code #3 : Graphical Representation.
import numpy as np import matplotlib.pyplot as plt distribution = np.linspace(0, np.minimum(rv.dist.b, 2)) print("Distribution : \n", distribution) plot = plt.plot(distribution, rv.ppf(distribution)) |
Output :
