Interface ObjectSampler<T>

Type Parameters:

T - Type of the sample.

All Known Subinterfaces:

SharedStateObjectSampler<T>

All Known Implementing Classes:

BoxSampler, CollectionSampler, CombinationSampler, DirichletSampler, DiscreteProbabilityCollectionSampler, LineSampler, PermutationSampler, TetrahedronSampler, TriangleSampler, UnitBallSampler, UnitSphereSampler

Functional Interface:

This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
T	sample()	Create an object sample.
default Stream<T>	samples()	Returns an effectively unlimited stream of object sample values.
default Stream<T>	samples(long streamSize)	Returns a stream producing the given streamSize number of object sample values.

Method Details

sample

T sample()

Create an object sample.

Returns:

a sample.

samples

default Stream<T> samples()

Returns an effectively unlimited stream of object sample values.

The default implementation produces a sequential stream that repeatedly calls sample().

Returns:

a stream of object values.

1.5

samples

default Stream<T> samples(long streamSize)

Returns a stream producing the given streamSize number of object sample values.

The default implementation produces a sequential stream that repeatedly calls sample(); the stream is limited to the given streamSize.

Parameters:

streamSize - Number of values to generate.

Returns:

a stream of object values.
