In probability theory and statistics, the continuous uniform distributions or rectangular distributions are a family of symmetric probability distributions. Such a distribution describes an experiment where there is an arbitrary outcome that lies between certain bounds. The bounds are defined by the parameters, and which are the minimum and maximum values. The interval can either be close. DefinitionsThe of the continuous uniform distribution is The values of at the two boundaries and are usually unimportant, because they do not alter the value of over any interval nor of nor of any high. The mean (first raw ) of the continuous uniform distribution is: The second raw moment of this distribution is: In general, the -th raw moment of this distribution is:.
