MathProbabilityDensityHypergeometric

Calculates the value of the probability mass function of hypergeometric distribution with the m, k and n parameters for a random variable x. In case of error it returns NaN.

double  MathProbabilityDensityHypergeometric(
   const double  x,             // value of random variable (integer)
   const double  m,             // total number of objects (integer)
   const double  k,             // number of objects with the desired characteristic (integer)
   const double  n,             // number of object draws (integer)
   const bool    log_mode,      // calculate the logarithm of the value, if log_mode=true, then the natural logarithm of the probability density is calculated
   int&          error_code     // variable to store the error code
   );

Calculates the value of the probability mass function of hypergeometric distribution with the m, k and n parameters for a random variable x. In case of error it returns NaN.

double  MathProbabilityDensityHypergeometric(

   const double  m,             // total number of objects (integer)
   const double  k,             // number of objects with the desired characteristic (integer)
   const double  n,             // number of object draws (integer)
   int&          error_code     // variable to store the error code
   );

Calculates the value of the probability mass function of hypergeometric distribution with the m, k and n parameters for an array of random variables x[]. In case of error it returns false. Analog of the dhyper() in R.

bool  MathProbabilityDensityHypergeometric(
   const double& x[],            // array with the values of random variable
   const double  m,              // total number of objects (integer)
   const double  k,              // number of objects with the desired characteristic (integer)
   const double  n,              // number of object draws (integer)
   const bool    log_mode,       // flag to calculate the logarithm of the value, if log_mode=true, then the natural logarithm of the probability density is calculated
   double&       result[]        // array for values of the probability density function
   );

bool  MathProbabilityDensityHypergeometric(
   const double& x[],            // array with the values of random variable
   const double  m,              // total number of objects (integer)
   const double  k,              // number of objects with the desired characteristic (integer)
   const double  n,              // number of object draws (integer)
   double&       result[]        // array for values of the probability density function
