DOUBLE PRECISION for vdrngbeta

REAL(KIND=4), INTENT(OUT) for vsrngbeta

REAL(KIND=8), INTENT(OUT) for vdrngbeta

Vector of n random numbers with beta distribution

Description

The vRngBeta function generates random numbers with beta distribution that has shape parameters p and q, displacement a, and scale parameter β, where p, q, a, and β∈R ; p > 0, q > 0, β > 0.

The probability density function is given by:

where B(p, q) is the complete beta function.

The cumulative distribution function is as follows:

Return Values

VSL_ERROR_OK, VSL_STATUS_OK: Indicates no error, execution is successful.
VSL_ERROR_NULL_PTR: stream is a NULL pointer.
VSL_RNG_ERROR_BAD_STREAM: stream is not a valid random stream.
VSL_RNG_ERROR_BAD_UPDATE: Callback function for an abstract BRNG returns an invalid number of updated entries in a buffer, that is, < 0 or > nmax.
VSL_RNG_ERROR_NO_NUMBERS: Callback function for an abstract BRNG returns 0 as the number of updated entries in a buffer.
VSL_RNG_ERROR_QRNG_PERIOD_ELAPSED: Period of the generator has been exceeded.
VSL_RNG_ERROR_NONDETERM_NRETRIES_EXCEEDED: Number of retries to generate a random number by using non-deterministic random number generator exceeds threshold.
VSL_RNG_ERROR_ARS5_NOT_SUPPORTED: ARS-5 random number generator is not supported on the CPU running the application.
