Syntax

public static BetaFitResult FitToSample(
	Sample sample
)

Public Shared Function FitToSample (

) As BetaFitResult

public:
static BetaFitResult^ FitToSample(
	Sample^ sample
)

static member FitToSample : 
        sample : Sample -> BetaFitResult

Parameters

sample: Type: Meta.Numerics.StatisticsSample
The sample to fit.

Return Value

Type: BetaFitResult
The best fit parameters.

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
ArgumentNullException	sample is null.
InsufficientDataException	sample contains fewer than three values.
InvalidOperationException	Not all the entries in sample lie between zero and one.
