scipy.stats.anglit

scipy.stats.anglit = <scipy.stats.distributions.anglit_gen object at 0x41ebcd0>

An anglit continuous random variable.

Continuous random variables are defined from a standard form and may require some shape parameters to complete its specification. Any optional keyword parameters can be passed to the methods of the RV object as given below:

Parameters :

x : array_like

quantiles

q : array_like

lower or upper tail probability

loc : array_like, optional

location parameter (default=0)

scale : array_like, optional

scale parameter (default=1)

size : int or tuple of ints, optional

shape of random variates (default computed from input arguments )

moments : str, optional

composed of letters [‘mvsk’] specifying which moments to compute where ‘m’ = mean, ‘v’ = variance, ‘s’ = (Fisher’s) skew and ‘k’ = (Fisher’s) kurtosis. (default=’mv’)

Alternatively, the object may be called (as a function) to fix the shape, :

location, and scale parameters returning a “frozen” continuous RV object: :

rv = anglit(loc=0, scale=1) :

• Frozen RV object with the same methods but holding the given shape, location, and scale fixed.

Notes

The probability density function for anglit is:

anglit.pdf(x) = sin(2*x + pi/2) = cos(2*x),

for -pi/4 <= x <= pi/4.

Examples

>>> from scipy.stats import anglit
>>> numargs = anglit.numargs
>>> [  ] = [0.9,] * numargs
>>> rv = anglit()

Display frozen pdf

>>> x = np.linspace(0, np.minimum(rv.dist.b, 3))
>>> h = plt.plot(x, rv.pdf(x))

Check accuracy of cdf and ppf

>>> prb = anglit.cdf(x, )
>>> h = plt.semilogy(np.abs(x - anglit.ppf(prb, )) + 1e-20)

Random number generation

>>> R = anglit.rvs(size=100)

Methods
