copula-class: Mother Classes "Copula" and "copula" of All Copulas in the Package

Description

A copula is a multivariate distribution with uniform margins. The virtual class "Copula" is the mother of all copula classes in the package copula which encompasses classes of the former packages nacopula and copula.

The virtual class "copula" is the mother of all copula classes from former package copula.

Objects from the Class

Objects are typically created by are by tCopula(), evCopula(), etc.

Note that the virtual class "Copula", is simply the union (see setClassUnion) of the two classes "copula" and "nacopula".

Warning

This implementation is still at the experimental stage and is subject to change during the development.
