Chapter 11: Probability Distribution Functions and Inverses

UNPR

This function evaluates the uniform probability density function.

Function Return Value

UNPR — Function value, the value of the probability density function.   (Output)

Required Arguments

X — Argument for which the uniform probability density function is to be evaluated.   (Input)

A — Location parameter of the uniform probability function.   (Input)

B — Value used to compute the scale parameter (BA) of the uniform probability density function.   (Input)

FORTRAN 90 Interface

Generic:                              UNPR (X, A, B)

Specific:                             The specific interface names are S_UNPR and D_UNPR.

FORTRAN 77 Interface

Single:                                UNPR (X, A, B)

Double:                              The double precision name is DUNPR.

Description

The function UNPR evaluates the uniform probability density function with location parameter A and scale parameter (BA), defined

 

Example

In this example, we evaluate the uniform probability density function at X = 0.65, A = 0.25,
B = 0.75.

 

      USE UMACH_INT
      USE UNPR_INT
      IMPLICIT NONE

      INTEGER NOUT

      REAL X, A, B, PR

      CALL UMACH(2, NOUT)

      X = 0.65

      A = 0.25

      B = 0.75

      PR = UNPR(X, A, B)

      WRITE (NOUT, 99999) X, A, B, PR

99999 FORMAT (' UNPR(', F4.2, ', ', F4.2, ', ', F4.2, ') = ', F6.4)

      END

Output

 

UNPR(0.65, 0.25, 0.75) = 2.0000
