Definition von uniform distribution im Englisch Englisch wörterbuch
A distribution in which all possible outcomes have an equal chance of occurring Also known as a rectangular distribution
A continuous probability distribution which is useful for characterizing data which ranges over an interval of values, each of which is equally likely It is sometimes called the rectangular distribution because of its shape when plotted The distribution is completely determined by the smallest possible value "a" and the largest possible value "b" For discrete data, there is a related discrete uniform distribution Parameters: lower limit a upper limit b>a Domain: a<=X<=b Mean: (a+b)/a Variance: (b-a) ^2/12
The simplest of all failure distributions it can be interpreted as meaning that the random variable can only exist in the range A to B (lower to upper) and that the probability of occurrence is directly proportional to the interval length
A continuous probability distribution having a rectangular shape that says the probability is distributed evenly (or uniformly) over an interval of numbers (page 191)
