public class Zeta

extends AbstractDiscreteDistribution

Zeta distribution.

Valid parameter ranges: ro > 0 and pk >= 0.

If either ro > 100 or k > 10000 numerical problems in computing the theoretical moments arise, therefore ro <= 100 and k <= 10000 are recommended.

Instance methods operate on a user supplied uniform random number generator; they are unsynchronized.

Static methods operate on a default uniform random number generator; they are synchronized.

Implementation:

Method: Acceptance/Rejection. High performance implementation.

This is a port and adaption of Zeta.c from the C-RAND / WIN-RAND library. C-RAND's implementation, in turn, is based upon

J. Dagpunar (1988): Principles of Random Variate Generation, Clarendon Press, Oxford.
