openmc.stats.Discrete

class openmc.stats.Discrete(x, p)[source]

Distribution characterized by a probability mass function.

The Discrete distribution assigns probability values to discrete values of a random variable, rather than expressing the distribution as a continuous random variable.

Parameters:
  • x (Iterable of float) – Values of the random variable
  • p (Iterable of float) – Discrete probability for each value
Variables:
  • x (Iterable of float) – Values of the random variable
  • p (Iterable of float) – Discrete probability for each value
classmethod from_xml_element(elem)[source]

Parameters:elem (xml.etree.ElementTree.Element) – XML element
Returns:Discrete distribution generated from XML element
Return type:openmc.stats.Discrete
to_xml_element(element_name)[source]

Return XML representation of the discrete distribution

Parameters:element_name (str) – XML element name
Returns:element – XML element containing discrete distribution data
Return type:xml.etree.ElementTree.Element
