Remarks
C#
Copy
Return log-normal distributed random deviates
with given mean and standard deviation stdev
according to the density function:
                                               2
                    1                (ln x - m)
p   (x) dx =  -------------- exp( - ------------ ) dx  for x > 0
 m,s          sqrt(2 pi x) s               2
                                        2 s

           = 0   otherwise

where  m  and  s  are related to the arguments mean and stdev by:

                       2
                   mean
m = ln ( --------------------- )
                    2      2
         sqrt( stdev + mean  )

                    2      2
               stdev + mean
s = sqrt( ln( -------------- ) )
                       2
                   mean
