Class of the parameter of parametric families of probability measures.
Objects can be created by calls of the form new("ParamFamParameter", ...).
More frequently they are created via the generating function
ParamFamParameter.
mainObject of class "numeric": main parameter.
nuisanceObject of class "OptionalNumeric":
optional nuisance parameter.
fixedObject of class "OptionalNumeric":
optional fixed part of the parameter.
trafoObject of class "MatrixorFunction":
transformation of the parameter.
nameObject of class "character":
name of the parameter.
withPosRestr(for ParamWithShapeFamParameter and
ParamWithScaleAndShapeFamParameter): Object of class "logical":
Is shape restricted to be positive?
Class "Parameter", directly.
Class "OptionalParameter", by class "Parameter".
signature(object = "ParamFamParameter"):
accessor function for slot main.
signature(object = "ParamFamParameter"):
replacement function for slot main.
signature(object = "ParamFamParameter"):
accessor function for slot nuisance.
signature(object = "ParamFamParameter"):
replacement function for slot nuisance.
signature(object = "ParamFamParameter"):
accessor function for slot fixed.
signature(object = "ParamFamParameter"):
replacement function for slot fixed.
signature(object = "ParamFamParameter"):
accessor function for slot trafo.
signature(object = "ParamFamParameter"):
replacement function for slot trafo.
signature(x = "ParamFamParameter"):
sum of the lengths of main and nuisance.
signature(x = "ParamFamParameter"):
length of main.
signature(object = "ParamWithShapeFamParameter"):
accessor function for slot trafo.
signature(object = "ParamWithShapeFamParameter"):
replacement function for slot trafo.
signature(object = "ParamFamParameter")
signature(object = "ParamWithShapeFamParameter")
signature(object = "ParamWithScaleAndShapeFamParameter")
Detailedness of output by methods show, print is controlled
by the global option show.details to be set by
distrModoptions.
As method show is used when inspecting an object by typing the object's
name into the console, show comes without extra arguments and hence
detailedness must be controlled by global options.
Method print may be called with a (partially matched) argument
show.details, and then the global option is temporarily set to this
value.
More specifically, when show.detail is matched to "minimal"
only class and name as well as main and nuisance part of the
parameter are shown. When show.detail is matched to "medium",
and if you estimate non-trivial (i.e. not the identity)
transformation of the parameter of the parametric family, you will in addition
be shown the derivative matrix, if the transformation is given in form of
this matrix, while, if the transformation is in function form, you will
only be told this.
Finally, when show.detail is matched to "maximal",
and you have a non-trivial transformation in function form, you will
also be shown the code to this function.
