In probability and statistics, the reciprocal distribution, also known as the log-uniform distribution, is a continuous probability distribution. It is characterised by its probability density function, within the support of the distribution, being proportional to the reciprocal of the variable. The reciprocal distribution is an example of an inverse distribution, and the reciprocal of a random variable with a reciprocal distribution itself has a reciprocal distribution.
