Otpospois: One-truncated Positive-Poisson Distribution

Description

Density, distribution function, quantile function, and random generation for the one-truncated positive-Poisson distribution.

Usage

dotpospois(x, lambda, log = FALSE)
potpospois(q, lambda, log.p = FALSE)
qotpospois(p, lambda)
rotpospois(n, lambda)

Arguments

x, q, p, n

Same as Pospois.

lambda, log, log.p

Same as Pospois.

Value

dotpospois gives the density, potpospois gives the distribution function, qotpospois gives the quantile function, and rotpospois generates random deviates.

Details

The one-truncated positive-Poisson is a Poisson distribution but with the probability of a one and a zero being 0. That is, its support is 2, 3, …. The other probabilities are scaled to add to unity. Some more details are given in pospoisson.

Examples

Run this code
# NOT RUN {
dotpospois(1:20, 0.5)
rotpospois(20, 0.5)

# }
# NOT RUN {
 lambda <- 4; x <- 1:10
plot(x, dotpospois(x, lambda = lambda), type = "h", ylim = 0:1,
     sub = "lambda=4", las = 1, col = "blue", ylab = "Probability",
     main = "1-truncated positive-Poisson distribution: blue=PMF; orange=CDF")
lines(x + 0.1, potpospois(x, lambda = lambda), col = "orange", lty = 3, type = "h") 
# }
