std::negative_binomial_distribution<IntType>::negative_binomial_distribution

From cppreference.com
negative_binomial_distribution( ) : negative_binomial_distribution( 1 ) { }
(1) (since C++11)
explicit negative_binomial_distribution( IntType k, double p = 0.5 ) ;
(2) (since C++11)
explicit negative_binomial_distribution( const param_type& params ) ;
(3) (since C++11)

Constructs a new distribution object.

2) Uses k and p as the distribution parameters.
3) Uses params as the distribution parameters.

Parameters

k - the k distribution parameter (number of trial successes)
p - the p distribution parameter (probability of a trial generating true)
params - the distribution parameter set

Notes

Requires that 0 < p ≤ 1 and 0 < k.

If p == 1, subsequent calls to the operator() overload that does not accept a param_type

The default-constructed std::negative_binomial_distribution is equivalent to the default-constructed std::geometric_distribution
