Sample from a negative binomial distribution

Usage

monty_random_negative_binomial_prob(size, prob, state)

monty_random_n_negative_binomial_prob(n_samples, size, prob, state)

monty_random_negative_binomial_mu(size, mu, state)

monty_random_n_negative_binomial_mu(n_samples, size, mu, state)

Arguments

size

The target number of successful trials (zero or more)

prob

The probability of success on each trial (between 0 and 1)

state

The random number state, from monty_rng_create

n_samples

The number of samples to take, per stream. When using the multiple-sample interface, all other parameters are held constant (per stream).

mu

The mean (zero or more)

Value

A vector of random numbers, the same length as the number of streams in state.
