Examples

## ---- A mydist distribution ----
mydist <- distributionH(x = c(1, 2, 3, 10), p = c(0, 0.1, 0.5, 1))
## ---- Compute the quantile of mydist for different values of p ----
y <- compQ(mydist, 0.5) # the median
y <- compQ(mydist, 0) # the minimum
y <- compQ(mydist, 1) # the maximum
y <- compQ(mydist, 0.25) # the first quartile
y <- compQ(mydist, 0.9) # the ninth decile
