Hypergeometric random numbers
x = distfun_hygernd(M,k,N) x = distfun_hygernd(M,k,N,[m,n]) x = distfun_hygernd(M,k,N,m,n)
a matrix of doubles, the total size of the population . M belongs to the set {0,1,2,3........}
a matrix of doubles, the number of successful states in the population . k belongs to the set {0,1,2,3.......M-1,M}
a matrix of doubles, the total number of draws in the experiment . N belongs to the set {0,1,2,3,.......M-1,M}
a 1-by-1 matrix of floating point integers, the number of rows of x
a 1-by-1 matrix of floating point integers, the number of columns of x
a matrix of doubles, the random numbers in the set {0,1,2,...,min(N,k)}.
Generates random variables from the Hypergeometric distribution function.
Any scalar input argument is expanded to a matrix of doubles of the same size as the other input arguments.
The algorithm is based on the inversion of the CDF.
