Description
- This function gives the Exponential Distribution. This distribution is used to model the time until something happens in the process.
- This describes the time between events in a Poisson process i.e, a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate.
- For e.g Time between successive vehicles arrivals at a workshop.
- Exponential distribution is the only continuous memoryless random distribution. It is a continuous analog of the Geometric distribution.
