General Description

Functions to create Statistical Distribution objects (both Discrete and Continuous). You can either create classical distribution objects or create distribution objects given raw data. The latter distribution objects can then be subject to a variety of hypotheses tests.

The types of classical distributions that can be created are :

Bernoulli

Binomial

Chi-square

Continuous Constant

Continuous Uniform

Discrete Constant

Discrete Uniform

Exponential

Hypergeometric

Normal

Lognormal

Poisson

Rayleigh

F

Student's T

Weibull

Once these distribution objects have been created you can create Random Process objects from them and thus generate random numbers. You can additionally query the distribution objects for its properties.
