Location_parameter

back to [[Numerical parameter]]

A parameter whose value determines only the position (see [[Central Tendancy]]) on the real line that a [[density function]] occupies. The shape of the curve representing the function is visualized as shifting back and forth along the line according to the value of the location parameter.
