binomial_distribution< _IntType, _RealType >::result_type std::tr1::binomial_distribution< _IntType, _RealType >::operator() | ( | _UniformRandomNumberGenerator & | __urng | ) |

A rejection algorithm when t * p >= 8 and a simple waiting time method - the second in the referenced book - otherwise. NB: The former is available only if _GLIBCXX_USE_C99_MATH_TR1 is defined.

|  | const binomial_distribution< _IntType1, _RealType1 > & | __x |
| ) |  |  | `[friend]`

Inserts a binomial_distribution random number distribution `__x` into the output stream `__os`.

Parameters:

  | __os | An output stream.
  | __x | A binomial_distribution random number distribution.

Returns:
  The output stream with the state of `__x` inserted or in an error state.
