The Rayleigh Distribution

Random: double gsl_ran_rayleigh (const gsl_rng * r, double sigma)
This function returns a random variate from the Rayleigh distribution with scale parameter sigma. The distribution is,

for @math{x > 0}.

Function: double gsl_ran_rayleigh_pdf (double x, double sigma)
This function computes the probability density @math{p(x)} at x for a Rayleigh distribution with scale parameter sigma, using the formula given above.
