[Statistics] Log normal distribution parameters

2021-08-02 Thread Alex Herbert
The LogNormalDistribution takes in parameters scale and shape. The parameters are the mean and standard deviation of the logarithm of the random value X. Other libraries use mean (mu) and sigma for the parameters. These are the parameters used on: - Wikipedia: mu, sigma [1] - Matlab: mu, sigma [2
