About stdlib...

We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.

The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.

When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.

To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!

Negative Binomial

NPM version Build Status Coverage Status <!-- dependencies -->

Negative binomial distribution.

## Installation ```bash npm install @stdlib/stats-base-dists-negative-binomial ``` Alternatively, - To load the package in a website via a `script` tag without installation and bundlers, use the [ES Module][es-module] available on the [`esm`][esm-url] branch (see [README][esm-readme]). - If you are using Deno, visit the [`deno`][deno-url] branch (see [README][deno-readme] for usage intructions). - For use in Observable, or in browser/node environments, use the [Universal Module Definition (UMD)][umd] build available on the [`umd`][umd-url] branch (see [README][umd-readme]). The [branches.md][branches-url] file summarizes the available branches and displays a diagram illustrating their relationships. To view installation and usage instructions specific to each branch build, be sure to explicitly navigate to the respective README files on each branch, as linked to above.
## Usage ```javascript var negativeBinomial = require( '@stdlib/stats-base-dists-negative-binomial' ); ``` #### negativeBinomial Negative binomial distribution. ```javascript var dist = negativeBinomial; // returns {...} ``` The namespace contains the following distribution functions:
- [`cdf( x, r, p )`][@stdlib/stats/base/dists/negative-binomial/cdf]: negative binomial distribution cumulative distribution function. - [`logpmf( x, r, p )`][@stdlib/stats/base/dists/negative-binomial/logpmf]: evaluate the natural logarithm of the probability mass function (PMF) for a negative binomial distribution. - [`mgf( t, r, p )`][@stdlib/stats/base/dists/negative-binomial/mgf]: negative binomial distribution moment-generating function (MGF). - [`pmf( x, r, p )`][@stdlib/stats/base/dists/negative-binomial/pmf]: negative binomial distribution probability mass function (PMF). - [`quantile( k, r, p )`][@stdlib/stats/base/dists/negative-binomial/quantile]: negative binomial distribution quantile function.
The namespace contains the following functions for calculating distribution properties:
- [`kurtosis( r, p )`][@stdlib/stats/base/dists/negative-binomial/kurtosis]: negative binomial distribution excess kurtosis. - [`mean( r, p )`][@stdlib/stats/base/dists/negative-binomial/mean]: negative binomial distribution expected value. - [`mode( r, p )`][@stdlib/stats/base/dists/negative-binomial/mode]: negative binomial distribution mode. - [`skewness( r, p )`][@stdlib/stats/base/dists/negative-binomial/skewness]: negative binomial distribution skewness. - [`stdev( r, p )`][@stdlib/stats/base/dists/negative-binomial/stdev]: negative binomial distribution standard deviation. - [`variance( r, p )`][@stdlib/stats/base/dists/negative-binomial/variance]: negative binomial distribution variance.
The namespace contains a constructor function for creating a [negative binomial][negative-binomial-distribution] distribution object.
- [`NegativeBinomial( [r, p] )`][@stdlib/stats/base/dists/negative-binomial/ctor]: negative binomial distribution constructor.
```javascript var NegativeBinomial = require( '@stdlib/stats-base-dists-negative-binomial' ).NegativeBinomial; var dist = new NegativeBinomial( 4.0, 0.2 ); var y = dist.pmf( 4.0 ); // returns ~0.023 ```
## Examples ```javascript var negativeBinomial = require( '@stdlib/stats-base-dists-negative-binomial' ); /* * Let's take an example of flipping a biased coin until getting 5 heads. * This situation can be modeled using a Negative Binomial distribution with r = 5 and p = 1/2. */ var r = 5.0; var p = 1/2; // Mean can be used to calculate the average number of trials needed to get 5 heads: console.log( negativeBinomial.mean( r, p ) ); // => 5 // PMF can be used to calculate the probability of getting heads on a specific trial (say on the 8th trial): console.log( negativeBinomial.pmf( 8, r, p ) ); // => ~0.06 // CDF can be used to calculate the probability up to a certain number of trials (say up to 8 trials): console.log( negativeBinomial.cdf( 8, r, p ) ); // => ~0.867 // Quantile can be used to calculate the number of trials at which you can be 80% confident that the actual number will not exceed: console.log( negativeBinomial.quantile( 0.8, r, p ) ); // => 7 // Standard deviation can be used to calculate the measure of the spread of trials around the mean: console.log( negativeBinomial.stdev( r, p ) ); // => ~3.162 // Skewness can be used to calculate the asymmetry of the distribution of trials: console.log( negativeBinomial.skewness( r, p ) ); // => ~0.949 // MGF can be used for more advanced statistical analyses and generating moments of the distribution: console.log( negativeBinomial.mgf( 0.5, r, p ) ); // => ~2277.597 ```
