[c++] random variable form Gaussian dist.

#include <iostream>

#include <string>

#include <random>

using namespace std;

int main() {

int nrolls = 10000; //the number of sampling trial

random_device rd;    //making random seed for generator

default_random_engine generator( rd() ); //making random generator using the random seed

normal_distribution<double> gaussian(5., 2.); //Gaussian distribution with mean 5 deviation 2

int p[10] = {};

double temp;

for (int i=0; i<nrolls; i++){

cout << gaussian(generator) << endl; //generating random number from the gaussian distribution

if (temp>0. && temp<10.) p[int(temp)]++;

}

//print the results

for(int i=0; i<10; i++){

cout << i << "-" << i+1 << ":";

cout << string(p[i]*nstars/nrolls,'*') << endl;

}

return 0;

}

You need -std=c++11 option to compile the code.
