scipy.stats.kstwobign

scipy.stats.kstwobign = <scipy.stats._continuous_distns.kstwobign_gen object at 0x5812bd0>

Kolmogorov-Smirnov two-sided test for large N.

As an instance of the rv_continuous class, kstwobign object inherits from it a collection of generic methods (see below for the full list), and completes them with details specific for this particular distribution.

Examples

>>> from scipy.stats import kstwobign
>>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
>>> fig, ax = plt.subplots(1, 1)

Calculate a few first moments:

>>> mean, var, skew, kurt = kstwobign.stats(moments='mvsk')

Display the probability density function (pdf):

>>> x = np.linspace(kstwobign.ppf(0.01),
...                 kstwobign.ppf(0.99), 100)
>>> ax.plot(x, kstwobign.pdf(x),
...        'r-', lw=5, alpha=0.6, label='kstwobign pdf')

Alternatively, the distribution object can be called (as a function) to fix the shape, location and scale parameters. This returns a “frozen” RV object holding the given parameters fixed.

Freeze the distribution and display the frozen pdf:

>>> rv = kstwobign()
>>> ax.plot(x, rv.pdf(x), 'k-', lw=2, label='frozen pdf')

Check accuracy of cdf and ppf:

>>> vals = kstwobign.ppf([0.001, 0.5, 0.999])
>>> np.allclose([0.001, 0.5, 0.999], kstwobign.cdf(vals))
True

Generate random numbers:

>>> r = kstwobign.rvs(size=1000)

And compare the histogram:

>>> ax.hist(r, normed=True, histtype='stepfilled', alpha=0.2)
>>> ax.legend(loc='best', frameon=False)
>>> plt.show()
