Usage

distribution(type = "normal", ...)
distribution_custom(n, type = "norm", ..., random = FALSE)
distribution_beta(n, shape1, shape2, ncp = 0, random = FALSE, ...)
distribution_binomial(n, size = 1, prob = 0.5, random = FALSE, ...)
distribution_binom(n, size = 1, prob = 0.5, random = FALSE, ...)
distribution_cauchy(n, location = 0, scale = 1, random = FALSE, ...)
distribution_chisquared(n, df, ncp = 0, random = FALSE, ...)
distribution_chisq(n, df, ncp = 0, random = FALSE, ...)
distribution_gamma(n, shape, scale = 1, random = FALSE, ...)
distribution_mixture_normal(n, mean = c(-3, 3), sd = 1, random = FALSE, ...)
distribution_normal(n, mean = 0, sd = 1, random = FALSE, ...)
distribution_gaussian(n, mean = 0, sd = 1, random = FALSE, ...)
distribution_nbinom(n, size, prob, mu, phi, random = FALSE, ...)
distribution_poisson(n, lambda = 1, random = FALSE, ...)
distribution_student(n, df, ncp, random = FALSE, ...)
distribution_t(n, df, ncp, random = FALSE, ...)
distribution_student_t(n, df, ncp, random = FALSE, ...)
distribution_tweedie(n, xi = NULL, mu, phi, power = NULL, random = FALSE, ...)
distribution_uniform(n, min = 0, max = 1, random = FALSE, ...)
rnorm_perfect(n, mean = 0, sd = 1)

Arguments

type

Can be any of the names from base R's Distributions, like "cauchy", "pois" or "beta".

...

Arguments passed to or from other methods.

n

the number of observations

random

Generate near-perfect or random (simple wrappers for the base R r* functions) distributions.

shape1

non-negative parameters of the Beta distribution.

shape2

non-negative parameters of the Beta distribution.

ncp

non-centrality parameter.

size

number of trials (zero or more).

prob

probability of success on each trial.

location

location and scale parameters.

scale

location and scale parameters.

df

degrees of freedom (non-negative, but can be non-integer).

shape

shape and scale parameters. Must be positive, scale strictly.

mean

vector of means.

sd

vector of standard deviations.

mu

the mean

phi

Corresponding to glmmTMB's implementation of nbinom distribution, where size=mu/phi.

lambda

vector of (non-negative) means.

xi

the value of \(\xi\) such that the variance is \(\mbox{var}[Y]=\phi\mu^{\xi}\)

power

a synonym for \(\xi\)

min

lower and upper limits of the distribution. Must be finite.

max

lower and upper limits of the distribution. Must be finite.

Examples

# NOT RUN {
library(bayestestR)
x <- distribution(n = 10)
plot(density(x))

x <- distribution(type = "gamma", n = 100, shape = 2)
plot(density(x))
# }
