public class Gaussian
- extends RandomSource
Produce a random sequence with a Gaussian distribution. On each
iteration, a new random number is produced. The output port is of
type DoubleToken. The values that are generated are independent
and identically distributed with the mean and the standard
deviation given by parameters. In addition, the seed can be
specified as a parameter to control the sequence that is generated.

mean
public PortParameter mean
- The mean of the random number.
This has type double, initially with value 0.
standardDeviation
public PortParameter standardDeviation
- The standard deviation of the random number.
This has type double, initially with value 1.
_current
protected double _current
- The random number for the current iteration.
Gaussian
public Gaussian(CompositeEntity container,
java.lang.String name)
throws NameDuplicationException,
IllegalActionException
- Construct an actor with the given container and name.
- Parameters:
container
- The container.name
- The name of this actor.
- Throws:
IllegalActionException
- If the actor cannot be contained
by the proposed container.
NameDuplicationException
- If the container already has an
actor with this name.
fire
public void fire()
throws IllegalActionException
- Send a random number with a Gaussian distribution to the output.
This number is only changed in the prefire() method, so it will
remain constant throughout an iteration.
- Specified by:
fire
in interface Executable
- Overrides:
fire
in class RandomSource
- Throws:
IllegalActionException
- If there is no director.
_generateRandomNumber
protected void _generateRandomNumber()
throws IllegalActionException
- Generate a new random number.
- Specified by:
_generateRandomNumber
in class RandomSource
- Throws:
IllegalActionException
- If parameter values are incorrect.
