gemd.entity.value.uniform_real module
A uniformly distributed real value.
- class gemd.entity.value.uniform_real.UniformReal(lower_bound=None, upper_bound=None, units=None)
Bases:
ContinuousValue
Uniform continuous distribution, with inclusive lower and upper bounds.
Note
These are especially useful for expressing uncertainty when the number of digits is truncated. For example, a measured value of 1.3 could be represented as a uniform real with a lower bound of 1.25 and an upper bound of 1.35.
- Parameters
lower_bound (float) – Inclusive lower bound of the distribution.
upper_bound (float) – Inclusive upper bound of the distribution.
units (str) – A string describing the units. Units must be present and they must be parseable by Pint. An empty string can be used for the units of a dimensionless quantity.
- as_dict() Dict[str, Any]
Convert the object to a dictionary.
- Returns
A dictionary representation of the object, where the keys are its fields.
- Return type
dict
- static build(d: Mapping[str, Any]) DictSerializableType
Build an object from a JSON dictionary.
This differs from from_dict in that the values themselves may also be dictionaries corresponding to serialized DictSerializable objects.
- Parameters
d (dict) – The object as a serialized dictionary.
- Returns
The deserialized object.
- Return type
- dump() Dict[str, Any]
Convert the object to a JSON dictionary, so that every entry is serialized.
Uses the json encoder client, so objects with uids are converted to LinkByUID dictionaries.
- Returns
A string representation of the object as a dictionary.
- Return type
str
- classmethod from_dict(d: Mapping[str, Any]) DictSerializableType
Reconstitute the object from a dictionary.
- Parameters
d (dict) – The object as a dictionary of key-value pairs that correspond to the object’s fields.
- Returns
The deserialized object.
- Return type
- skip = {}
- typ = 'uniform_real'
- property units: str
Get the units of the value.
