| 4 .SH NAME | |
| 5 gsl-randist - generate random samples from various distributions | |
| 6 .SH SYNOPSYS | |
| 7 .B gsl-randist seed n DIST param1 param2 [..] | |
| 8 .SH DESCRIPTION | |
| 9 .B gsl-randist | |
| 10 is a demonstration program for the GNU Scientific Library. | |
| 11 It generates n random samples from the distribution DIST using the distribution | |
| 12 parameters param1, param2, ... | |
| 13 .SH EXAMPLE | |
| 14 Here is an example. We generate 10000 random samples from a Cauchy | |
| 15 distribution with a width of 30 and histogram them over the range -100 to | |
| 16 100, using 200 bins. | |
| 17 | |
| 18 gsl-randist 0 10000 cauchy 30 | gsl-histogram -100 100 200 > histogram.dat | |
| 19 | |
| 20 A plot of the resulting histogram will show the familiar shape of the | |
| 21 Cauchy distribution with fluctuations caused by the finite sample | |
| 22 size. | |
