Dist Rust

PDF, CDF, and percent-point/quantile functions for the normal and Student’s t distributions

🎉 Zero dependencies

Installation

Add this line to your application’s Cargo.toml under [dependencies]:

distrs = "0.1"

Getting Started

• Normal
• Student’s t

Normal

use distrs::Normal;

Normal::pdf(x, mean, std_dev);
Normal::cdf(x, mean, std_dev);
Normal::ppf(p, mean, std_dev);

Student’s t

use distrs::StudentsT;

StudentsT::pdf(x, df);
StudentsT::cdf(x, df);
StudentsT::ppf(p, df);
