normcore's Introduction

Normcore

Build Status

Simple library for sampling from random distributions. Useful for testing / generating fake data.

  • Normcore::Normal - Gaussian/normal distribution.
  • Normcore::LogNormal - exp(Gaussian/normal) distribution.

Installation

RubyGems

gem install normcore

Bundler

gem 'normcore'

Usage

require 'normcore'

# μ = 0, σ = 1
d = Normcore::Normal.new(0, 1)

# return an Array of 100 samples
d.sample(100)

# get a single random value
d.rng

FactoryBot

FactoryBot.factory :measurement do
  value { Normcore::Normal.new(0, 1).rng }
end

Bonus

You can use Normcore as a command-line executable:

# produce an endless stream [defaults: μ = 0, σ = 1]
$ normcore

# μ=100, σ=50
$ normcore 100 50

Using bashplotlib:

$ normcore 1 5 | head -n 10000 | hist
