a character string specifying the distribution (for example, "norm" corresponds to the standard normal)

the lower end point of the distribution specified by <code>spec</code>

the upper end point of the distribution specified by <code>spec</code>

Computes expectation for a given ditribution

Expectation

Computes 26 financial risk measures for any continuous distribution. The 26 financial risk measures include value at risk, expected shortfall due to Artzner et al. (1999) <DOI:10.1007/s10957-011-9968-2>, tail conditional median due to Kou et al. (2013) <DOI:10.1287/moor.1120.0577>, expectiles due to Newey and Powell (1987) <DOI:10.2307/1911031>, beyond value at risk due to Longin (2001) <DOI:10.3905/jod.2001.319161>, expected proportional shortfall due to Belzunce et al. (2012) <DOI:10.1016/j.insmatheco.2012.05.003>, elementary risk measure due to Ahmadi-Javid (2012) <DOI:10.1007/s10957-011-9968-2>, omega due to Shadwick and Keating (2002), sortino ratio due to Rollinger and Hoffman (2013), kappa due to Kaplan and Knowles (2004), Wang (1998)'s <DOI:10.1080/10920277.1998.10595708> risk measures, Stone (1973)'s <DOI:10.2307/2978638> risk measures, Luce (1980)'s <DOI:10.1007/BF00135033> risk measures, Sarin (1987)'s <DOI:10.1007/BF00126387> risk measures, Bronshtein and Kurelenkova (2009)'s risk measures.
