class LogNormal(TransformedDistribution):
    r"""
    Creates a log-normal distribution parameterized by
    :attr:`loc` and :attr:`scale` where::

        X ~ Normal(loc, scale)
        Y = exp(X) ~ LogNormal(loc, scale)

    Example::

        >>> # xdoctest: +IGNORE_WANT("non-deterministic")
        >>> m = LogNormal(torch.tensor([0.0]), torch.tensor([1.0]))
        >>> m.sample()  # log-normal distributed with mean=0 and stddev=1
        tensor([ 0.1046])

    Args:
        loc (float or Tensor): mean of log of distribution
        scale (float or Tensor): standard deviation of log of the distribution
