Command: rdevdict::gsl_binomial

Name:
rdevdict::gsl_binomial - GSL binomial random deviate generator
Description:
This function returns a random integer from the binomial distribution, the number of successes in n independent trials with probability p. The probability distribution for binomial variates is, p(k) = (n! / k!(n-k)!) p^k (1-p)^(n-k) , 0<=k<=n, n>0 Please note that the RNG used to initialize gsl_binomial has to be from the GSL (prefixed gsl_ in rngdict)
Parameters:
p - probability of success in a single trial (double) n - number of trials (positive integer)
