Detailed Description

This class implements random variate generators for the logistic distribution.

Its parameters are \(\alpha\) and \(\lambda> 0\). Its density function is

\[ f(x) = \frac{\lambda e^{-\lambda(x-\alpha)}}{\left(1 + e^{-\lambda(x-\alpha)}\right)^2} \qquad\mbox{ for } -\infty<x<\infty. \tag{flogistic} \]

The (non-static) nextDouble method simply calls inverseF on the distribution.
