Exponentially distributed random numbers. Baltimore, Published for Operations Research Office, Johns Hopkins University by Johns Hopkins Press [] (OCoLC) Document Type: Book: All Authors / Contributors: Charles E Clark; Betty Weber Holz. With C++11 the standard actually guarantees that there is a RNG following the requirements of exponential-distribution available in the STL, and fittingly the object-type has a very descriptive name.. The mean in an exponentially distributed random generator is calculated by the formula E[X] = 1 / lambda std::exponential_distribution has a constructor taking lambda as an argument, so we. An exponential random variable is a continuous random variable that has applications in modeling a Poisson process. Using the function, a sequence of exponentially distributed random numbers can be generated, whose estimated pdf is plotted against the theoretical pdf as shown in the Figure 1. Refer the book Wireless Communication.   The exponential distribution is often used to model the longevity of an electrical or mechanical device. In Example, the lifetime of a certain computer part has the exponential distribution with a mean of ten years ($$X \sim Exp()$$).
