Method new()

Creates a new instance of this R6 class.

Usage

DistributionWrapper$new(
  distlist = NULL,
  name,
  short_name,
  description,
  support,
  type,
  valueSupport,
  variateForm,
  parameters = NULL,
  outerID = NULL
)

Arguments

distlist

(list()) List of Distributions.

name

(character(1)) Wrapped distribution name.

short_name

(character(1)) Wrapped distribution ID.

description

(character()) Wrapped distribution description.

support

([set6::Set]) Wrapped distribution support.

type

([set6::Set]) Wrapped distribution type.

valueSupport

(character(1)) Wrapped distribution value support.

variateForm

(character(1)) Wrapped distribution variate form.

parameters

([param6::ParameterSet]) Optional parameters to add to the internal collection, ignored if distlist is given.

outerID

([param6::ParameterSet]) Parameters added by the wrapper.

Method wrappedModels()

Returns model(s) wrapped by this wrapper.

Usage

DistributionWrapper$wrappedModels(model = NULL)

Arguments

model

(character(1)) id of wrapped Distributions to return. If NULL (default), a list of all wrapped Distributions is returned; if only one Distribution is matched then this is returned, otherwise a list of Distributions.

Method clone()

The objects of this class are cloneable with this method.

Usage

DistributionWrapper$clone(deep = FALSE)

Arguments

deep

Whether to make a deep clone.

Details

Wrappers in distr6 use the composite pattern (Gamma et al. 1994), so that a wrapped distribution has the same methods and fields as an unwrapped one. After wrapping, the parameters of a distribution are prefixed with the distribution name to ensure uniqueness of parameter IDs.

Use listWrappers function to see constructable wrappers.
