Duplicate of How do gamma distributions add and what would that model? | |
| Mar 30, 2020 at 3:42 | comment | added | Carl | The gamma distribution has two different parameterizations. One with a rate parameter, the other with a scale parameter. So, when you ask for 0.2 as a parameter, you must specify whether that is a rate, e.g., in per min, or a scale, e.g., in min. | |
