scipy.stats.foldnorm() is an folded normal continuous random variable that is defined with a standard format and some shape parameters to complete its specification.
Parameters :
-> q : lower and upper tail probability
-> a : shape parameters
-> 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 : folded normal continuous random variable
Code #1 : Creating folded normal continuous random variable
from scipy.stats import foldnorm   numargs = foldnorm.numargs [a] = [0.7, ] * numargs rv = foldnorm(a)   print ("RV : \n", rv) |
Output :
RV : <scipy.stats._distn_infrastructure.rv_frozen object at 0x0000018D56531160>
Code #2 : folded normal random variates and probability distribution.
import numpy as np quantile = np.arange (0.01, 1, 0.1)    # Random Variates R = foldnorm.rvs(a, scale = 2, size = 10) print ("Random Variates : \n", R)   # PDF R = foldnorm.pdf(a, quantile, loc = 0, scale = 1) print ("\nProbability Distribution : \n", R) |
Output :

Code #3 : Graphical Representation.
import numpy as np import matplotlib.pyplot as plt   distribution = np.linspace(0, np.minimum(rv.dist.b, 3)) print("Distribution : \n", distribution)   plot = plt.plot(distribution, rv.pdf(distribution)) |
