Defined in header <random>
template< class RealType = double >
class extreme_value_distribution;
(since C++11)

Produces random numbers according to the extreme value distribution (it is also known as Gumbel Type I, log-Weibull, Fisher-Tippett Type I):

p(x;a,b) =
1
b
exp

a-x
b
- exp

a-x
b




std::extreme_value_distribution satisfies all requirements of RandomNumberDistribution

Template parameters

RealType - The result type generated by the generator. The effect is undefined if this is not one of float, double, or long double.


Member types

Member type Definition
result_type RealType
param_type the type of the parameter set, see RandomNumberDistribution.

Member functions
