| All the code in this library is inside namespace boost::math. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| In order to use a distribution <span class="emphasis"><em>my_distribution</em></span> you |
| will need to include either the header <boost/math/distributions/my_distribution.hpp> |
| or the "include all the distributions" header: <boost/math/distributions.hpp>. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| For example, to use the Students-t distribution include either <boost/math/distributions/students_t.hpp> |
| or <boost/math/distributions.hpp> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| You also need to bring distribution names into scope, perhaps with a |
| <code class="computeroutput"><span class="keyword">using</span> <span class="keyword">namespace</span> |
| <span class="identifier">boost</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">math</span><span class="special">;</span></code> |
| declaration, |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| or specific <code class="computeroutput"><span class="keyword">using</span></code> declarations |
| like <code class="computeroutput"><span class="keyword">using</span> <span class="identifier">boost</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">math</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">normal</span><span class="special">;</span></code> (<span class="bold"><strong>recommended</strong></span>). |
