Stochastic Distribution
Types
The types of probability distributions provided by GoldSim are listed below.
The fields that appear in the Parameters section of the Stochastic dialog will change with the distribution type.
The required inputs for each of the distributions types are
summarized in the
Note: As a general rule, you should not specify the parameters of a distribution as a function of time, since GoldSim does automatically resample the distribution unless you specifically instruct GoldSim to do so.
