RayleighDistribution

Create a Rayleigh distribution from its scale parameter.

---

Declaration

 self = RayleighDistribution(sigma=<value>)

Parameters

• options.sigma positive scale parameter, default 1

Returns

• self RayleighDistribution instance

Discussion

Use this constructor for nonnegative radial data whose density follows the Rayleigh family. When called with no inputs, the constructor uses the default scale \(\sigma = 1.\)
