numpy.random.weibull(a, size=None) Draw samples from a Weibull distribution. Draw samples from a 1-parameter Weibull distribution with the given shape parameter a. Here, U is drawn from the uniform distribution over (0,1]. The more common 2-parameter Weibull, including a scale parameter is just . Parameters: a : float Shape of the distribution. size : int or tuple of ints, optional Output shape. If the given shape is, e.g., (m, n, k), then m * n * k samples are drawn. Default is Non

numpy.random.vonmises(mu, kappa, size=None) Draw samples from a von Mises distribution. Samples are drawn from a von Mises distribution with specified mode (mu) and dispersion (kappa), on the interval [-pi, pi]. The von Mises distribution (also known as the circular normal distribution) is a continuous probability distribution on the unit circle. It may be thought of as the circular analogue of the normal distribution. Parameters: mu : float Mode (?center?) of the distribution. kappa : f

numpy.random.wald(mean, scale, size=None) Draw samples from a Wald, or inverse Gaussian, distribution. As the scale approaches infinity, the distribution becomes more like a Gaussian. Some references claim that the Wald is an inverse Gaussian with mean equal to 1, but this is by no means universal. The inverse Gaussian distribution was first studied in relationship to Brownian motion. In 1956 M.C.K. Tweedie used the name inverse Gaussian because there is an inverse relationship between the

numpy.random.uniform(low=0.0, high=1.0, size=None) Draw samples from a uniform distribution. Samples are uniformly distributed over the half-open interval [low, high) (includes low, but excludes high). In other words, any value within the given interval is equally likely to be drawn by uniform. Parameters: low : float, optional Lower boundary of the output interval. All values generated will be greater than or equal to low. The default value is 0. high : float Upper boundary of the outp

numpy.random.triangular(left, mode, right, size=None) Draw samples from the triangular distribution. The triangular distribution is a continuous probability distribution with lower limit left, peak at mode, and upper limit right. Unlike the other distributions, these parameters directly define the shape of the pdf. Parameters: left : scalar Lower limit. mode : scalar The value where the peak of the distribution occurs. The value should fulfill the condition left <= mode <= right.

numpy.random.standard_t(df, size=None) Draw samples from a standard Student?s t distribution with df degrees of freedom. A special case of the hyperbolic distribution. As df gets large, the result resembles that of the standard normal distribution (standard_normal). Parameters: df : int Degrees of freedom, should be > 0. size : int or tuple of ints, optional Output shape. If the given shape is, e.g., (m, n, k), then m * n * k samples are drawn. Default is None, in which case a single

numpy.random.standard_normal(size=None) Draw samples from a standard Normal distribution (mean=0, stdev=1). Parameters: size : int or tuple of ints, optional Output shape. If the given shape is, e.g., (m, n, k), then m * n * k samples are drawn. Default is None, in which case a single value is returned. Returns: out : float or ndarray Drawn samples. Examples >>> s = np.random.standard_normal(8000) >>> s array([ 0.6888893 , 0.78096262, -0.89086505, ..., 0.49876311

numpy.random.standard_gamma(shape, size=None) Draw samples from a standard Gamma distribution. Samples are drawn from a Gamma distribution with specified parameters, shape (sometimes designated ?k?) and scale=1. Parameters: shape : float Parameter, should be > 0. size : int or tuple of ints, optional Output shape. If the given shape is, e.g., (m, n, k), then m * n * k samples are drawn. Default is None, in which case a single value is returned. Returns: samples : ndarray or scalar

numpy.random.standard_exponential(size=None) Draw samples from the standard exponential distribution. standard_exponential is identical to the exponential distribution with a scale parameter of 1. Parameters: size : int or tuple of ints, optional Output shape. If the given shape is, e.g., (m, n, k), then m * n * k samples are drawn. Default is None, in which case a single value is returned. Returns: out : float or ndarray Drawn samples. Examples Output a 3x8000 array: >>> n

numpy.random.standard_cauchy(size=None) Draw samples from a standard Cauchy distribution with mode = 0. Also known as the Lorentz distribution. Parameters: size : int or tuple of ints, optional Output shape. If the given shape is, e.g., (m, n, k), then m * n * k samples are drawn. Default is None, in which case a single value is returned. Returns: samples : ndarray or scalar The drawn samples. Notes The probability density function for the full Cauchy distribution is and the Stan
