rvoverlap: Test Whether Intervals Overlap with a Given Interval
Description
Tests whether the uncertainty intervals of
the given random variables overlap with a given interval.
NOTE. Still experimental.
Usage
rvoverlap(obj, iv, interval=0.95, one.sided=FALSE, left=TRUE)
Arguments
obj
random variable (vector or array)
iv
an interval (range)
interval
size of the (middle) interval
one.sided
logical, FALSE if two-sided interval is desired
left
logical, indicating if the left one-sided interval is desired
Value
0Middle interval is fully enclosed by iv
-1Middle interval is partially covered on the left of iv
+1Middle interval is partially covered on the right of iv
-InfMiddle interval is completely to the left of iv
+InfMiddle interval is completely to the right of iv
