uncertain 0.0.1

Mathematical calculations with uncertain numbers

UNCERTAIN

Python module to keep track of uncertainties in mathematical calculations.

Usage example

Input:

from uncertain import *
a = UncertainValue(5, 3, 8, 'normal', [5, 1])
b = UncertainValue(1, 0.1, 4)
c = -b+2*a**(b/3)

print(c.describe(),
    "\n\nThe standard deviation of b is "+str(b.std),
	"\n\nThe probability of /c/ being between 2 and 6 is " +
	str(probability_in_interval(c, [2, 6])))

a.plot_distribution(title="Uncertain numbers", label="a")
b.plot_distribution(label="b", alpha=0.5)
c.plot_distribution(label="c", alpha=0.5)

c.plot_distribution(plot_type='cdf', new_figure=True)

Output:
