std::gamma_...::alpha,beta(3)

💖 NAME 💖

This is the std::gamma_...::alpha,beta(3) page from the C++ Standard Library, and it's all about std::gamma_distribution::alpha,beta — the two member functions alpha and beta that hand you back the distribution parameters your gamma distribution was constructed with. 🎀 Slay.

✨ Synopsis ✨

RealType alpha() const; (1) (since C++11)
RealType beta() const;  (2) (since C++11)

okay so the actual tea ☕: both functions return the distribution parameters the distribution has been constructed with. Let's get into it:

1. alpha() — Returns the α distribution parameter. It is also known as the shape parameter. The default value is 1.0. 💅
2. beta() — Returns the β distribution parameter. It is also known as the scale parameter. The default value is 1.0. ✨

🌸 Parameters 🌸

(none) — literally not a single parameter, bestie 🫶 zero, nada, the vibes are immaculate.

🎀 Return value 🎀

1. A floating point value identifying the α parameter. 💖
2. A floating point value identifying the β parameter. 🦋

• param — gets or sets the distribution parameter object (C++11) (public member function). ngl, super handy 💅

mwah 💋 — this lil masterpiece came from http://cppreference.com, version 2024.06.10, and it's the std::gamma_...::alpha,beta(3) manual page. bye bestie! 🎀💖✨
