Issue ID: 19283
Summary: [std.mathspecial] documentation for normal
distribution doesn't list parameters
Product: D
Version: D2
Hardware: All
URL: http://dlang.org/phobos/
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: trivial
Priority: P3
Component: phobos
Assignee: nobody at puremagic.com
Reporter: kulhanek.5 at wright.edu
The documentation for normalDistribution and normalDistributionInverse does not
state what mean and standard deviation are used. Presumably mean=0.0 and
stdev=1.0; this is consistent with the cumulative distribution equation listed
in the normalDistribution docs and the code for the z<1 case in
std.internal.math.errorfunction.normalDistributionImpl. Still, it'd probably
be a good idea for someone familiar with std.internal.math.errorfunction to
double check that before updating the docs; there's some numerical stability
code (I think) in there that I was unable to follow.
