DistributionParameterAssumptions
DistributionParameterAssumptions[dist]
gives a logical expression for assumptions on parameters in the symbolic distribution dist.
Details
- DistributionParameterAssumptions returns a logical combination of equalities, inequalities, and domain specifications for assumptions on parameters in dist.
- DistributionParameterAssumptions can generate parameter assumptions for any univariate or multivariate distribution specified as a symbolic distribution.
