oneapi::mkl::rng::beta¶
Generates beta distributed random values.
Description¶
The oneapi::mkl::rng::beta class object is used in the oneapi::mkl::rng::generate function to provide random numbers with beta distribution that has shape parameters p and q, displacement a, and scale parameter (b, β), where p, q, a, and 
.
The probability density function is given by:

where B(p, q) is the complete beta function.
The cumulative distribution function is as follows:
