Kumaraswamy

Usage

var Kumaraswamy = require( '@stdlib/stats/base/dists/kumaraswamy/ctor' );

Kumaraswamy( [a, b] )

Returns a Kumaraswamy's double bounded distribution object.

var kumaraswamy = new Kumaraswamy();

var mu = kumaraswamy.mean;
// returns 0.5

By default, a = 1.0 and b = 1.0. To create a distribution having a different a (first shape parameter) and b (second shape parameter), provide the corresponding arguments.

var kumaraswamy = new Kumaraswamy( 2.0, 4.0 );

var mu = kumaraswamy.mean;
// returns ~0.406

kumaraswamy

A Kumaraswamy's double bounded distribution object has the following properties and methods...

Writable Properties

kumaraswamy.a

First shape parameter of the distribution. a must be a positive number.

var kumaraswamy = new Kumaraswamy();

var a = kumaraswamy.a;
// returns 1.0

kumaraswamy.a = 3.0;

a = kumaraswamy.a;
// returns 3.0

kumaraswamy.b

Second shape parameter of the distribution. b must be a positive number.

var kumaraswamy = new Kumaraswamy( 2.0, 4.0 );

var b = kumaraswamy.b;
// returns 4.0

kumaraswamy.b = 3.0;

b = kumaraswamy.b;
// returns 3.0

Computed Properties

Kumaraswamy.prototype.kurtosis

Returns the excess kurtosis.

var kumaraswamy = new Kumaraswamy( 4.0, 12.0 );

var kurtosis = kumaraswamy.kurtosis;
// returns ~2.704

Kumaraswamy.prototype.mean

Returns the expected value.

var kumaraswamy = new Kumaraswamy( 4.0, 12.0 );
