public:
using method_type = Method;
using result_type = IntType;
negative_binomial(): negative_binomial(0.1, 0.5){}
explicit negative_binomial(double a, double p);
double a() const;
double p() const;
};

Description

The oneapi::mkl::rng::negative_binomial class object is used in the oneapi::mkl::rng::generate function to provide random numbers with negative binomial distribution and distribution parameters a and p, where p, a∈R; 0 < p < 1; a > 0.

If the first distribution parameter a∈N, this distribution is the same as Pascal distribution. If a∈N, the distribution can be interpreted as the expected time of a-th success in a sequence of Bernoulli trials, when the probability of success is p.

The probability distribution is given by:

The cumulative distribution function is as follows:

Intel’s compilers may or may not optimize to the same degree for non-Intel microprocessors for optimizations that are not unique to Intel microprocessors. These optimizations include SSE2, SSE3, and SSSE3 instruction sets and other optimizations. Intel does not guarantee the availability, functionality, or effectiveness of any optimization on microprocessors not manufactured by Intel. Microprocessor-dependent optimizations in this product are intended for use with Intel microprocessors. Certain optimizations not specific to Intel microarchitecture are reserved for Intel microprocessors.
