Method Detail

error
```
public java.lang.RuntimeException error(java.lang.String errorText)
```
Signals an error during the model run by throwing a RuntimeException with errorText preceded by the agent full name.

Parameters:

errorText - the text describing the error that will be displayed.

Returns:

actually this method never returns, it throws runtime exception by itself.
But the return type is defined for some cases when you would like to use the following form of call: throw error("my message");

error
```
public java.lang.RuntimeException error(java.lang.String errorTextFormat,
                                        java.lang.Object... args)
```
The same as error(String) but allows error format syntax like in String.format(String, Object...) method

See Also:

error(String), String.format(String, Object...)

errorInModel
```
public java.lang.RuntimeException errorInModel(java.lang.String errorText)
```
Signals an model logic error during the model run by throwing a ModelException with errorText preceded by the agent full name.
This method differs from error() in the way of displaying error message: model logic errors are 'softer' than other errors, they use to happen in the models and signal the modeler that model might need some parameters adjustments. Examples are 'entity was unable to leave flowchart block because subsequent block was busy', 'insufficient capacity of pallet rack' etc.

Parameters:

errorText - the text describing the error that will be displayed.

Returns:

actually this method never returns, it throws runtime exception by itself.
But the return type is defined for some cases when you would like to use the following form of call: throw errorInModel("my message");

warning
```
public abstract void warning(java.lang.String warningText)
```
Signals a warning during the model run with warningText preceded by the agent full name.
Warnings may be turned off in the AnyLogic preferences (runtime section) or by API: AnyLogicRuntimePreferences.setEnableWarnings(Boolean).
This method checks against numerous warnings output:
- In case of multiple warnings having equal warningText, only the first 10 of them are displayed.
- When more than 1000 warnings having different warningText occur, all the subsequent warnings (including new occurrences of those in the first 1000) will stop displaying.
- Be careful with using dynamically changing warningText (e.g. listing names of agents), it could be better to use warning(String, Object...).
Parameters:

warningText - the text describing the warning that will be displayed.

Since:

8.6

warning
```
public abstract void warning(java.lang.String warningTextFormat,
                             java.lang.Object... args)
```
Signals a warning during the model run with warningText preceded by the agent full name. The method allows warning format syntax like in String.format(String, Object...) method.
Warnings may be turned off in the AnyLogic preferences (runtime section) or by API: AnyLogicRuntimePreferences.setEnableWarnings(Boolean).
This method checks against numerous warnings output:
- In case of multiple warnings having equal warningTextFormat, only the first 10 of them are displayed.
- It is safe to raise numerous warnings with equal format string (which defines the warning type) but varying args - AnyLogic will take care to display only 10 first warnings of each warning type.
- When more than 1000 warnings having different warningTextFormat occur, all the subsequent warnings (including new occurrences of those in the first 1000) will stop displaying.
- Don't use dynamically changing warningTextFormat (e.g. listing names of agents), use args instead.
Since:

8.6

```
Deprecated.

Returns timeout, in model time units, which equals to the given amount of timeUnits from current model date
e.g. toTimeout( DAY, 1 ) returns timeout in model time units from date() to the ( date() + 1 day )
Note, that the result of this method also depends on the current model date (because of leap years, different month lengths, daylight saving time tweaks) and therefore this method shouldn't be used for initialization of any constants

One of examples where this method should be used:
A model scheduling an event occurring each day at fixed time (e.g. 8:00): this method will return correct timeout on each call (even when time is switched to daylight-saving mode)
unlike day() which will always return timeout for 24 hours and may result in events scheduled at 7:00 or 9:00
Parameters:
timeUnit - time unit, possible values:
- Calendar.YEAR
- Calendar.MONTH
- Calendar#WEEK
- Calendar#DAY
- Calendar.HOUR
- Calendar.MINUTE
- Calendar.SECOND
- Calendar.MILLISECOND
amount - the number of time units (may be negative - in this case result will be also negative)

```
public double beta(double p,

                   double min,
                   double max)
```
Generates a sample of the Beta distribution.
The Beta distribution is a continuous distribution that has both upper and lower finite bounds. Because many real situations can be bounded in this way, the Beta distribution can be used empirically to estimate the actual distribution before much data is available. Even when data is available, the Beta distribution should fit most data in a reasonable fashion, although it may not be the best fit. The Uniform distribution is a special case of the Beta distribution with p, q = 1.
The Beta distribution can approach zero or infinity at either of its bounds, with p controlling the lower bound and q controlling the upper bound. Values of p, q < 1 cause the Beta distribution to approach infinity at that bound. Values of p, q > 1 cause the Beta distribution to be finite at that bound.
Beta distributions have many, many uses. As summarized in Johnson et al Beta distributions have been used to model distributions of hydrologic variables, logarithm of aerosol sizes, activity time in PERT analysis, isolation data in photovoltaic system analysis, porosity / void ratio of soil, phase derivatives in communication theory, size of progeny in Escherchia Coli, dissipation rate in breakage models, proportions in gas mixtures, steady-state reflectivity, clutter and power of radar signals, construction duration, particle size, tool wear, and others. Many of these uses occur because of the doubly bounded nature of the Beta distribution.

Parameters:

p - the lower shape parameter > 0.

q - the upper shape parameter > 0.

min - the minimum x value.

max - the maximum x value.

Returns:

the generated sample.

```
public double cauchy(double lambda,
                     double theta)
```

The Cauchy distribution is an unbounded continuous distribution that has a sharp central peak but significantly broad tails. The tails are much heavier than the tails of the Normal distribution.
The Cauchy distribution can be used to represent the ratio of two equally distributed parameters in certain cases, e.g. the ratio of two normal parameters. This distribution has no finite moments because of its extensive tails. Thus it can also be used to generate wildly divergent data a long as the data has a central tendency.

Parameters:

lambda - the scaling parameter > 0.

theta - the mode, or central peak position.

Returns:

the generated sample.

chi2
```
public double chi2(double nu,
                   double min)
```
Generates a sample of the Chi Squared distribution.
The Chi Squared is a continuous distribution bounded on the lower side. Note that the Chi Squared distribution is a subset of the Gamma distribution with beta=2 and alpha=nμ/2. Like the Gamma distribution, it has three distinct regions. For nμ=2, the Chi Squared distribution reduces to the Exponential distribution, starting at a finite value at minimum x and decreasing monotonically thereafter. For nμ<2, the Chi Squared distribution tends to infinity at minimum x and decreases monotonically for increasing x. For nμ>2, the Chi Squared distribution is 0 at minimum x, peaks at a value that depends on nμ, decreasing monotonically thereafter.
Because the Chi Squared distribution does not have a scaling parameter, its utilization is somewhat limited. Frequently, this distribution will try to represent data with a clustered distribution with nμ less than 2. However, it can be viewed as the distribution of the sum of squares of independent unit normal variables with nμ degrees of freedom and is used in many statistical tests.
Examples of each of the regions of the Chi Squared distribution are shown above. Note that the peak of the distribution moves away from the minimum value for increasing nu, but with a much broader distribution.

Parameters:

nu - the shape parameter.

min - the minimum x value.

Returns:

                     double min)
```
Generates a sample of the Erlang distribution.
The Erlang distribution is a continuous distribution bounded on the lower side. It is a special case of the Gamma distribution where the parameter, m, is restricted to a positive integer. As such, the Erlang distribution has no region where F(x) tends to infinity at the minimum value of x [m<1], but does have a special case at m=1, where it reduces to the Exponential distribution.
The Erlang distribution has been used extensively in reliability and in queuing theory, thus in discrete event simulation, because it can be viewed as the sum of m exponentially distributed random variables, each with mean beta.

Parameters:

beta - the scale factor > 0.

m - the shape factor (positive integer).

min - the minimum x value.

Returns:

the generated sample.

exponential
```
public double exponential(double lambda,
                          double min)
```
Generates a sample of the Exponential distribution.
The Exponential distribution is a continuous distribution bounded on the lower side. It's shape is always the same, starting at a finite value at the minimum and continuously decreasing at larger x. The Exponential distribution decreases rapidly for increasing x.
The Exponential distribution is frequently used to represent the time between random occurrences, such as the time between arrivals at a specific location in a queuing model or the time between failures in reliability models. It has also been used to represent the services times of a specific operation. Further, it serves as an explicit manner in which the time dependence on noise may be treated. As such, these models are making explicit use of the lack of history dependence of the exponential distribution; it has the same set of probabilities when shifted in time. Even when Exponential models are known to be inadequate to describe the situation, their mathematical tractability provides a good starting point. Later, a more complex distribution such as Erlang or Weibull may be investigated.

Parameters:

lambda - the shape parameter.

min - the minimum x value.

Returns:

the generated sample.

public double gamma(double alpha,
                    double beta,
                    double min)
```
Generates a sample of the Gamma distribution.
The Gamma distribution is a continuous distribution bounded at the lower side. It has three distinct regions. For alpha=1, the Gamma distribution reduces to the Exponential distribution, starting at a finite value at minimum x and decreasing monotonically thereafter. For alpha<1, the Gamma distribution tends to infinity at minimum x and decreases monotonically for increasing x. For alpha>1, the Gamma distribution is 0 at minimum x, peaks at a value that depends on both alpha and beta, decreasing monotonically thereafter. If alpha is restricted to positive integers, the Gamma distribution is reduced to the Erlang distribution.
Note that the Gamma distribution also reduces to the Chi Squared distribution for min=0, beta=2, and alpha=nμ/2. It can then be viewed as the distribution of the sum of squares of independent unit normal variables, with nμ degrees of freedom and is used in many statistical tests.
The Gamma distribution can also be used to approximate the Normal distribution, for large alpha, while maintaining its strictly positive values of x [actually (x-min)].
The Gamma distribution has been used to represent lifetimes, lead times, personal income data, a population about a stable equilibrium, interarrival times, and service times. In particular, it can represent lifetime with redundancy (see Johnson, Shooman).
Examples of each of the regions of the Gamma distribution are shown above. Note the peak of the distribution moving away from the minimum value for increasing alpha, but with a much broader distribution.

                          int ps)
```
Generates a sample of the Hypergeometric distribution.
The Hypergeometric distribution is a discrete distribution bounded by [0,s]. It describes the number of defects, x, in a sample of size s from a population of size N which has m total defects. The ratio of m/N = p is sometimes used rather than m to describe the probability of a defect. Note that defects may be interpreted as successes, in which case x is the number of failures until (s-x) successes. The sample is taken without replacement.
The Hypergeometric distribution is used to describe sampling from a population where an estimate of the total number of defects is desired. It has also been used to estimate the total population of species from a tagged subset. However, estimates of all three parameters from a data set are notoriously fickle and error prone, so use of these parameters to estimate a physical quantity without specifying at least one of the parameters is not recommended. (see Johnson et. al.1)

Parameters:

ss - the sample size.

dn - the number of defects in the population.

ps - the size of the population.

For instance, this distribution has been used to describe the number of individuals of a given species in a sampling of mosquitoes, or the number of parts of a given type in a sampling of inventory.

The Lognormal distribution can also be used to approximate the Normal distribution, for small sigma, while maintaining its strictly positive values of x [actually (x-min)].
The Lognormal distribution is used in many different areas including the distribution of particle size in naturally occurring aggregates, dust concentration in industrial atmospheres, the distribution of minerals present in low, concentrations, duration of sickness absence, physicians' consultant time, lifetime distributions in reliability, distribution of income, employee retention, and many applications modeling weight, height, etc.(see Johnson et. al.1)

Parameters:

mu - the mean of the included Normal.

sigma - the standard deviation of the included Normal.

min - the minimum x value.

Returns:

the generated sample.

```
public int negativeBinomial(double p,

```
Generates a sample of the Negative Binomial distribution.
The Negative Binomial distribution is a discrete distribution bounded on the low side at 0 and unbounded on the high side. The Negative Binomial distribution reduces to the Geometric Distribution for n = 1. The Negative Binomial distribution gives the total number of trials, x, to get k events (failures...), each with the constant probability, p, of occurring.
The Negative Binomial distribution has many uses; some occur because it provides a good approximation for the sum or mixing of other discrete distributions. By itself, it is used to model accident statistics, birth-and-death processes, market research and consumer expenditure, lending library data, biometrical data, and many others. (see Johnson et. al.1)

Parameters:

p - the probability of event (in the interval (0,1)).

n - the number of desired events.

normal
```
public double normal(double sigma,
                     double mean)
```
Generates a sample of the Normal distribution.
The Normal distribution is an unbounded continuous distribution. It is sometimes called a Gaussian distribution or the bell curve. Because of its property of representing an increasing sum of small, independent errors, the Normal distribution finds many, many uses in statistics. It is wrongly used in many situations. Possibly, the most important test in the fitting of analytical distributions is the elimination of the Normal distribution as a possible candidate.
The Normal distribution is used as an approximation for the Binomial distribution when the values of n, p are in the appropriate range. The Normal distribution is frequently used to represent symmetrical data, but suffers from being unbounded in both directions. If the data is known to have a lower bound, it may be better represented by suitable parameterization of the Lognormal, Weibull or Gamma distributions. If the data is known to have both upper and lower bounds, the Beta distribution can be used, although much work has been done on truncated Normal distributions.

Parameters:

sigma - the shape parameter = standard deviation.

mean - the shift parameter = mean value.

Returns:

the generated sample.

It is also used to model many empirical phenomena with very long right tails, such as city population sizes, occurrence of natural resources, stock price fluctuations, size of firms, brightness of comets, and error clustering in communication circuits.

```
public int poisson(double lambda)
```
Generates a sample of the Poisson distribution.
The Poisson distribution is a discrete distribution bounded at 0 on the low side and unbounded on the high side. The Poisson distribution is a limiting form of the Hypergeometric distribution.
The Poisson distribution finds frequent use because it represents the infrequent occurrence of events whose rate is constant. This includes many types of events in time or space such as arrivals of telephone calls, defects in semiconductor manufacturing, defects in all aspects of quality control, molecular distributions, stellar distributions, geographical distributions of plants, shot noise, etc. It is an important starting point in queuing theory and reliability theory. Note that the time between arrivals (defects) is Exponentially distributed, which makes this distribution a particularly convenient starting point even when the process is more complex.
The Poisson distribution peaks near lambda and falls off rapidly on either side.

Parameters:

lambda - the rate of occurrence.

Returns:

```
Generates a sample of the Weibull distribution.
The Weibull distribution is a continuous distribution bounded on the lower side. Because it provides one of the limiting distributions for extreme values, it is also referred to as the Frechet distribution and the Weibull-Gnedenko distribution.
Like the Gamma distribution, it has three distinct regions. For alpha=1, beta=1/lambda the Weibull distribution is reduced to the Exponential distribution, starting at a finite value at minimum x and decreasing monotonically thereafter. For alpha<1, the Weibull distribution tends to infinity at minimum x and decreases monotonically for increasing x. for alpha>1, the Weibull distribution is 0 at minimum x, peaks at a value that depends on both alpha and beta, decreasing monotonically thereafter. Uniquely, the Weibull distribution has negative skewness for alpha>3.6.
The Weibull distribution can also be used to approximate the Normal distribution for alpha=3.6, while maintaining its strictly positive values of x [actually (x-min)], although the kurtosis is slightly smaller than 3, the Normal value.
The Weibull distribution derived its popularity from its use to model the strength of materials, and has since been used to model just about everything. In particular, the Weibull distribution is used to represent wearout lifetimes in reliability, wind speed, rainfall intensity, health related issues, germination, duration of industrial stoppages, migratory systems, and thunderstorm data.

Parameters:

alpha - the shape parameter > 0.

beta - the scale parameter > 0.

min - the minimum x value.

Returns:

the generated sample.

                      double stretch)
```
Generates a sample of truncated Weibull distribution.
Distribution weibull(alpha, stretch, 0) is shifted to the right by shift and then truncated to fit in [min, max] interval. Truncation is performed by discarding every sample outside this interval and taking subsequent try.
For more details see weibull(double, double, double)

Parameters:

min - the minimum value that this function will return. The distribution is truncated to return values above this. If the sample (stretched and shifted) is below this value it will be discarded and another sample will be drawn. Use -infinity for "No limit".

max - the maximum value that this function will return. The distribution is truncated to return values below this. If the sample (stretched and shifted) is bigger than this value it will be discarded and another sample will be drawn. Use +infinity for "No limit".

alpha - the shape parameter > 0.

shift - the shift parameter that indicates how much the (stretched) distribution will shifted to the right

stretch - the scale parameter.

Returns:

the generated sample

```
Returns the angle theta from the conversion of rectangular coordinates (x, y) to polar coordinates (r, theta). This method computes the phase theta by computing an arc tangent of y/x in the range of -pi to pi. Comparing with Math.atan2(double, double), instead of computation of value every time, this method uses precomputed table of values Math.atan2(double, double). Therefore atan2fast is approximately 20 times faster than Math.atan2(double, double). Average error (comparing to Math.atan2(double, double)) is 3e-5 radians, max error is 1e-4 radians. This Method does not accept special arguments like NaN or Infinities. It's recommended to use when you don't need extremely high accuracy and have assurance that your arguments are finite.

Parameters:

y -

x -

Returns:

arctangent(y/x)
