Libraries.Compute.Statistics.Distributions.VarianceRatioDistribution Documentation

This class, ported from Apache Commons, is an implementation of the F-Distribution. More information can be found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F-distribution

Inherits from: Libraries.Language.Object, Libraries.Compute.Statistics.Distributions.NumberDistribution

Actions Documentation

Compare(Libraries.Language.Object object)

This action compares two object hash codes and returns an integer. The result is larger if this hash code is larger than the object passed as a parameter, smaller, or equal. In this case, -1 means smaller, 0 means equal, and 1 means larger. This action was changed in Quorum 7 to return an integer, instead of a CompareResult object, because the previous implementation was causing efficiency issues.

Parameters

Return

integer: The Compare result, Smaller, Equal, or Larger.

Example

Object o
Object t
integer result = o:Compare(t) //1 (larger), 0 (equal), or -1 (smaller)

CumulativeDistribution(number x)

Parameters

  • number x

Return

number

Equals(Libraries.Language.Object object)

This action determines if two objects are equal based on their hash code values.

Parameters

Return

boolean: True if the hash codes are equal and false if they are not equal.

Example

use Libraries.Language.Object
use Libraries.Language.Types.Text
Object o
Text t
boolean result = o:Equals(t)

GetHashCode()

This action gets the hash code for an object.

Return

integer: The integer hash code of the object.

Example

Object o
integer hash = o:GetHashCode()

GetLowerBound()

Return

number

GetMean()

Return

number

GetSolverAbsoluteAccuracy()

Return

number

GetUpperBound()

Return

number

GetVariance()

Return

number

InverseCumulativeDistribution(number p)

This action is an implementation of the Inverse Cumulative Distribution, which is also called the Percent Point Function. NIST describes this as NIST/SEMATECH e-Handbook of Statistical Methods, http://www.itl.nist.gov/div898/handbook/, date. https://www.itl.nist.gov/div898/handbook/eda/section3/eda362.htm

Parameters

  • number p

Return

number: the result of the action

InverseSurvival(number p)

This action is an implementation of the inverse survival function, as described by NIST/SEMATECH e-Handbook of Statistical Methods, http://www.itl.nist.gov/div898/handbook/, date. This action is equivalent to InverseCumulativeDistribution(1 - p) https://www.itl.nist.gov/div898/handbook/eda/section3/eda362.htm

Parameters

  • number p

Return

number: the result of the survival function

IsSupportConnected()

Return

boolean

Setup(number numerator, number denominator)

Parameters

  • number numerator
  • number denominator

Survival(number p)

This action is an implementation of the survival function, as described by NIST/SEMATECH e-Handbook of Statistical Methods, http://www.itl.nist.gov/div898/handbook/, date. This action is equivalent to CumulativeDistribution(1 - p) https://www.itl.nist.gov/div898/handbook/eda/section3/eda362.htm

Parameters

  • number p

Return

number: the result of the survival function
