Description

In chapter 2, exercise #2 solution uses exponential distribution for the randomized search of gamma. It explains that we should use it if we have an idea of what's the range of the value should be. I'm still confused what's the benefit of using exponential distribution rather than let say uniform distribution or normal distribution in this case though. Can anyone help explain?
