Limiting Behavior
In the limit of large κ the distribution becomes a normal distribution
where σ2 = 1/κ. In the limit of small κ it becomes a uniform distribution:
where the interval for the uniform distribution U(x) is the chosen interval of length 2π.

Famous quotes containing the words limiting and/or behavior:
“There could be no fairer destiny for any physical theory than that it should point the way to a more comprehensive theory in which it lives on as a limiting case.”
—Albert Einstein (1879–1955)
“Excessive attention, even if it’s negative, is such a powerful “reward” to a child that it actually reinforces the undesirable behavior. You need to learn restraint, to respond to far fewer situations, to ask yourself questions like, “Is this really important?” “Could I let this behavior go?” “What would happen if I just wait?” “Could I lose by doing nothing?””
—Stanley Turecki (20th century)
