RandomState.zipf()
numpy.random.RandomState.zipf

RandomState.zipf(a, size=None)
-
Draw samples from a Zipf distribution.
Samples are drawn from a Zipf distribution with specified parameter
a
> 1.The Zipf distribution (also known as the zeta distribution) is a continuous probability distribution that satisfies Zipf’s law: the frequency of an item is inversely proportional to its rank in a frequency table.
Parameters: a : float > 1
Distribution parameter.
size : int or tuple of ints, optional
Output shape. If the given shape is, e.g.,
(m, n, k)
, thenm * n * k
