About stdlib...
We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.
The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.
When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.
To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!
Negative Binomial
Negative binomial distribution.
Installation
npm install @stdlib/stats-base-dists-negative-binomialUsage
var negativeBinomial = require( '@stdlib/stats-base-dists-negative-binomial' );negativeBinomial
Negative binomial distribution.
var dist = negativeBinomial;
// returns {...}The namespace contains the following distribution functions:
-
cdf( x, r, p ): negative binomial distribution cumulative distribution function. -
logpmf( x, r, p ): evaluate the natural logarithm of the probability mass function (PMF) for a negative binomial distribution. -
mgf( t, r, p ): negative binomial distribution moment-generating function (MGF). -
pmf( x, r, p ): negative binomial distribution probability mass function (PMF). -
quantile( k, r, p ): negative binomial distribution quantile function.
The namespace contains the following functions for calculating distribution properties:
-
kurtosis( r, p ): negative binomial distribution excess kurtosis. -
mean( r, p ): negative binomial distribution expected value. -
mode( r, p ): negative binomial distribution mode. -
skewness( r, p ): negative binomial distribution skewness. -
stdev( r, p ): negative binomial distribution standard deviation. -
variance( r, p ): negative binomial distribution variance.
The namespace contains a constructor function for creating a negative binomial distribution object.
-
NegativeBinomial( [r, p] ): negative binomial distribution constructor.
var NegativeBinomial = require( '@stdlib/stats-base-dists-negative-binomial' ).NegativeBinomial;
var dist = new NegativeBinomial( 4.0, 0.2 );
var y = dist.pmf( 4.0 );
// returns ~0.023Examples
var objectKeys = require( '@stdlib/utils-keys' );
var negativeBinomial = require( '@stdlib/stats-base-dists-negative-binomial' );
console.log( objectKeys( negativeBinomial ) );Notice
This package is part of stdlib, a standard library for JavaScript and Node.js, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computing. The library provides a collection of robust, high performance libraries for mathematics, statistics, streams, utilities, and more.
