Description

param_type public construct/copy/destruct

  1. explicit param_type(RealType alpha = 1.0, RealType beta = 1.0);

    Constructs a param_type from the "alpha" and "beta" parameters of the distribution.

    Requires: alpha > 0, beta > 0

param_type public member functions

  1. RealType alpha() const;

    Returns the "alpha" parameter of the distribtuion.

  2. RealType beta() const;

    Returns the "beta" parameter of the distribution.

param_type friend functions

  1. template<typename CharT, typename Traits> 
      friend std::basic_ostream< CharT, Traits > & 
      operator<<(std::basic_ostream< CharT, Traits > & os, 
                 const param_type & param);

    Writes a param_type to a std::ostream.

  2. template<typename CharT, typename Traits> 
      friend std::basic_istream< CharT, Traits > & 
      operator>>(std::basic_istream< CharT, Traits > & is, 
                 const param_type & param);

    Reads a param_type from a std::istream.

  3. friend bool operator==(const param_type & lhs, const param_type & rhs);

    Returns true if the two sets of parameters are the same.

  4. friend bool operator!=(const param_type & lhs, const param_type & rhs);

    Returns true if the two sets of parameters are the different.
