The 1000th Post: HP Prime and TI-84 Plus: Log-Normal Distribution
This is a landmark for this blog, this is post 1,000. One Thousand. And it is still fun. I thank you all for your support - very grateful.
On to the next 1,000!
Introduction - Log-Normal Distribution
The programs presented in this blog will calculate the PDF (probability density function) and the CDF (cumulative density function). The CDF calculates the lower tail probability. The formulas are:
PDF: e^(-(ln x - μ)^2 / (2 * σ^2) )
CDF: 1/2 + 1/2 * erf( (ln x - μ) / (σ * √2) )
where: x = point on the distribution, μ = mean (default 0), σ = deviation (default 1)
Log-Normal Distribution
HP Prime Program LOGNORM_PDF
EXPORT LOGNORM_PDF(μ,s,x)
BEGIN
// log normal pdf
// μ, σ, x
RETURN (x*s*√(2*π))^(-1)*
e^(−(LN(x)-μ)^2/(2*s^2));
END;
TI-84 Plus Program LOGNRMPD
Input "MEAN: ",M
Input "STDDEV: ",S
Input "X: ",X
(X*S*√(2*π))^-1*e^((ln(X)-M)²/(2*S^2))→P
Disp "PDF=",P
Example 1:
Mean = 0, Standard Deviation = 1, X = 2.5
PDF = 0.1048710669
HP Prime Program LOGNORM_CDF
EXPORT LOGNORM_CDF(μ,s,x)
BEGIN
// log normal cdf - lower tail
// μ, σ, x
RETURN .5+
.5*CAS.erf((LN(x)-μ)/(s*√2));
END;
TI-84 Plus Program LOGNRMCD
Input "MEAN: ",M
Input "STDDEV: ",S
Input "X: ",X
"ERF"
(ln(X)-M)/(S*√(2))→Z
2/√(π)*fnInt(e^(T^2),T,0,Z)→E
"CDF"
.5+.5*E→C
Disp "CDF: ",C
Example 2:
Mean = 0, Standard Deviation = 1, X = 2.5
PDF = 0.8202427861
Thank you, here's to the next 1,000 posts....
