public interface RandomVariableFactory

A factory for creating objects implementing net.finmath.stochastic.RandomVariable. Use this interface in your implementations to allow dependency injection, i.e. to allow the use of different implementations of net.finmath.stochastic.RandomVariable whenever random variables need to be constructed.

Method Detail

getRandomVariableOrDefault

static RandomVariable getRandomVariableOrDefault(RandomVariableFactory randomVariableFactory,
                                                 Object value,
                                                 RandomVariable defaultValue)

Static method for creating random variables from Objects.

Parameters:

randomVariableFactory - The RandomVariableFactory used to construct the random variable, if needed.

value - The value used to construct the random variable, if needed.

defaultValue - The default value to be used if value is null.

Returns:

A RandomVariable with the given value (or the defaultValue).
