Summary

A trapezoidal continuous random variable.

Notes

The trapezoidal distribution can be represented with an up-sloping line from loc to (loc + c*scale), then constant to (loc + d*scale) and then downsloping from (loc + d*scale) to (loc+scale). This defines the trapezoid base from loc to (loc+scale) and the flat top from c to d proportional to the position along the base with 0 <= c <= d <= 1. When c=d, this is equivalent to triang with the same values for loc, scale and c. The method of [1] is used for computing moments.

trapezoid takes and as shape parameters.

%(after_notes)s

The standard form is in the range [0, 1] with c the mode. The location parameter shifts the start to loc. The scale parameter changes the width from 1 to scale.
