Numerics library
 
Pseudo-random number generation
 
std::lognormal_distribution
 
Defined in header <random>
template< class RealType = double >
class lognormal_distribution;
 (since C++11)

The lognormal_distribution random number distribution produces random numbers x > 0 according to a log-normal distribution:

f(x; m,s) =
1
sx√2 π
exp⎛
⎜
⎝-
(ln x - m)2
2s2
⎞
⎟
⎠

The parameter m is the mean and the parameter s the standard deviation.

Member functions

Template:cpp/numeric/random/lognormal distribution/dsc mTemplate:cpp/numeric/random/lognormal distribution/dsc s
(C++11)
 constructs new distribution
(public member function) [edit]
(C++11)
 resets the internal state of the distribution
(public member function) [edit]
Generation
(C++11)
 generates the next random number in the distribution
(public member function) [edit]
Characteristics
(C++11)
 gets or sets the distribution parameter object
(public member function) [edit]
(C++11)
 returns the minimum potentially generated value
(public member function) [edit]
(C++11)
 returns the maximum potentially generated value
(public member function) [edit]

Non-member functions

(C++11)(C++11)(removed in C++20)
 compares two distribution objects
(function) [edit]
(C++11)
 performs stream input and output on pseudo-random number distribution
(function template) [edit]

Example

Run this code
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <string>
#include <map>
#include <random>
#include <cmath>
int main()
{
    std::random_device rd;
    std::mt19937 gen(rd());
 
    std::lognormal_distribution<> d(1.6, 0.25);
 
    std::map<int, int> hist;
    for(int n=0; n<10000; ++n) {
        ++hist[std::round(d(gen))];
    }
    for(auto p : hist) {
        std::cout << std::fixed << std::setprecision(1) << std::setw(2)
                  << p.first << ' ' << std::string(p.second/200, '*') << '\n';
    }
}
