julialangHow to work with distributions in JuliaLang?


JuliaLang is a powerful language for working with distributions. It provides a wide range of functions for working with probability distributions, including functions for generating random numbers, computing moments, and calculating probability density functions.

For example, to generate a random number from a normal distribution with mean 0 and standard deviation 1, you can use the randn() function:

julia> randn()
-0.84500459909845

Code explanation

  • rand(): Generates a random number from a uniform distribution.
  • randn(): Generates a random number from a normal distribution.
  • pdf(): Calculates the probability density function for a given distribution.
  • cdf(): Calculates the cumulative distribution function for a given distribution.
  • moment(): Calculates the moments of a given distribution.
