Lifetime of
light bulbs
Examines (via Monte Carlo) the lifetime behaviour of light bulbs. |
|
|
n |
|
Initial number of bulbs. • |
At least, m |
(m ≤ n) |
Number, at least, working. • |
μ |
h |
Mean of lifetime (exponential distr.). • |
Prob |
% |
Probability to compute corresponding time. • |
N, .seed |
|
No. of trials, random no. gener. seed. • |
klass, gmax, ymax |
['0' (¬ '.0'): auto.] |
No. of histo. classes, max. abscissa & y
for graph. • |
Show values |
|
Shows the coordinates of the graph. • |
Simulates,
via Monte Carlo, the lifetimes of n light bulbs, which follow a (common)
exponential distribution, and examines the behaviour of the set,
for at least m working.
Plots the pdf and cdf of the set.
