scipy.stats.foldnorm() is an folded normal continuous random variable that is defined with a standard format and some shape parameters to complete its specification.
Parameters : -> q : lower and upper tail probability -> a : shape parameters -> x : quantiles -> loc : [optional]location parameter. Default = 0 -> scale : [optional]scale parameter. Default = 1 -> size : [tuple of ints, optional] shape or random variates. -> moments : [optional] composed of letters [‘mvsk’]; 'm' = mean, 'v' = variance, 's' = Fisher's skew and 'k' = Fisher's kurtosis. (default = 'mv'). Results : folded normal continuous random variable
Code #1 : Creating folded normal continuous random variable Python3
from scipy.stats import foldnorm

numargs = foldnorm.numargs
[a] = [0.7, ] * numargs
rv = foldnorm(a)

print ("RV : \n", rv) 
Output :
RV : 
 <scipy.stats._distn_infrastructure.rv_frozen object at 0x0000018D56531160>
Code #2 : folded normal random variates and probability distribution. Python3 1==
import numpy as np
quantile = np.arange (0.01, 1, 0.1)
 
# Random Variates
R = foldnorm.rvs(a, scale = 2,  size = 10)
print ("Random Variates : \n", R)

# PDF
R = foldnorm.pdf(a, quantile, loc = 0, scale = 1)
print ("\nProbability Distribution : \n", R)
Output :
Random Variates : 
 [1.91938545 1.98147825 2.45557747 6.33452251 1.94893049 1.67444448

Probability Distribution :

Code #3 : Graphical Representation. Python3
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

distribution = np.linspace(0, np.minimum(rv.dist.b, 3))
print("Distribution : \n", distribution)

plot = plt.plot(distribution, rv.pdf(distribution))
Output :

Code #4 : Varying Positional Arguments Python3 1==
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np

# Varying positional arguments
