ShiftFactor Property (RDKDistribution Object)

Description

Sets or retrieves the "shift" of the distribution. A shift factor is an optional "location" parameter, which allows a simple shift of distributions that do not have an intrinsic location parameter. A positive shiftFactor moves the distribution to the right on a graph. Note: While all distributions support the use of shift factors, in some cases it may lead to confusion to use them. For example, the first standard argument of the Normal distribution is a location parameter and thus the use of an additional shift factor might be confusing.

Syntax

object.ShiftFactor

Arguments

None.

Return Value

(Double) – the shift factor.
