Detailed Description

template<typename _RealType = double>
class std::exponential_distribution< _RealType >

An exponential continuous distribution for random numbers.

The formula for the exponential probability density function is $p(x|\lambda) = \lambda e^{-\lambda x}$.

Distribution Statistics

Mean

$\frac{1}{\lambda}$

Median

$\frac{\ln 2}{\lambda}$

Mode

$zero$

Range

$[0, \infty]$

Standard Deviation

$\frac{1}{\lambda}$
