pub struct Hypergeometric { /* private fields */ }
Expand description

The hypergeometric distribution Hypergeometric(N, K, n).

This is the distribution of successes in samples of size n drawn without replacement from a population of size N containing K success states. It has the density function: f(k) = binomial(K, k) * binomial(N-K, n-k) / binomial(N, n), where binomial(a, b) = a! / (b! * (a - b)!).

The binomial distribution is the analagous distribution for sampling with replacement. It is a good approximation when the population size is much larger than the sample size.

Example

use rand_distr::{Distribution, Hypergeometric};

let hypergeo = Hypergeometric::new(60, 24, 7).unwrap();
let v = hypergeo.sample(&mut rand::thread_rng());
println!("{} is from a hypergeometric distribution", v);

Implementations

Constructs a new Hypergeometric with the shape parameters N = total_population_size, K = population_with_feature, n = sample_size.
