Boost C++ Libraries: Ticket #767: log normal dist - error in _nsigma equation? https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/767 <pre class="wiki">Is there an extra "/_mean" in the equation for _nsigma on line 104 of lognormal_distribution.hpp? i.e. shouldn't it be: _nsigma = sqrt(log(_sigma*_sigma/_mean+result_type (1))); instead of: _nsigma = sqrt(log (_sigma*_sigma/_mean/_mean+result_type(1))); ??

Do you have a pointer to some documentation or other implementation that states otherwise? If so, please reopen the bug report and I'll have another look. </pre> Ticket
