Core Module Reference

RandomGenABC

Abstract base class for random number generators.

Attributes: * _numbers: A list of numbers. * _probabilities: A list of probabilities. * _cumulative_probabilities: A list of cumulative probabilities.

from_dict()

Set the numbers and probabilities from a dictionary.

Args:

• dict_obj: A dictionary of numbers and probabilities.

Returns:

• self: The instance of the class.

to_dict()

Return the numbers and probabilities as a dictionary.

Returns:

• A dictionary of numbers and respective probabilities.

set_numbers()

Set the numbers (similar to the categories in a histogram).

Args:

• values: A list of numbers.

Returns:

• self: The instance of the class.

validate_numbers()

Validate the numbers.

Returns:

• self: The instance of the class.

set_probabilities()

Set the probabilities.

Args:

• values: A list of probabilities.

Returns:

• self: The instance of the class.

validate_probabilities()

Validate the probabilities.

Returns:

• self: The instance of the class.

calc_cdf()

Calculate the cumulative probabilities.

Returns:

• self: The instance of the class.

validate()

Validate all the attributes of the class.

Returns:

• self: The instance of the class.

generate()

Generate random numbers based on the probabilities.

Args:

• amount: The number of random numbers to generate.

Returns:

• A list of random numbers.

next_num()

Abstract method to generate the next random number.

Returns:

• A random number.

RandomGenV1

Random number generator version 1. Uses the RandomGenABC class implements the next_num() method using the random.random() function.

next_num()

Generate a random number using the random.random() function.

Returns:

• A random number.

RandomGenV2

Random number generator version 1. Uses the RandomGenABC class implements the next_num() method using the random.random() function.

next_num()

Generate a random number using the random.random() function.

Returns:

• A random number.
