Triangular(min,mode,max)

Creates a triangular distribution, with minimum «min», most likely value «mode», and maximum «max». «min» must not be greater than «mode», and «mode» must not be greater than «max».

When to use

Use the triangular distribution when you have the bounds and the mode, but have little other information about the uncertain quantity.
