exponential

exponential(
    lambda: T,
    shape: &[i64] | &Vec<i64> | &[i64; _]
) -> Result<Tensor<T>, TensorError>

Create a Tensor with values drawn from an exponential distribution with rate parameter lambda. The exponential distribution describes the time between events in a Poisson point process.

Parameters:

lambda: Rate parameter (λ) of the exponential distribution. Must be positive.

shape: Shape of the output tensor.

Returns:

Tensor with type T containing random values from the exponential distribution.

Examples:

use hpt::{error::TensorError, ops::Random, Tensor};

fn main() -> Result<(), TensorError> {
    // Create a 10x10 tensor with exponential distribution (λ=2.0)
    let a = Tensor::<f32>::exponential(2.0, &[10, 10])?;
    println!("{}", a);
    Ok(())
}
