Univariate extended skew-normal distribution

Description

Density function, distribution function for the univariate extended skew-normal (ESN) distribution.

Usage

desn(x, location = 0, scale = 1, shape = 0, extended = 0)
pesn(x, location = 0, scale = 1, shape = 0, extended = 0)

Arguments

x

quantile.

location

location parameter. 0 is the default.

scale

scale parameter; must be positive. 1 is the default.

shape

skewness parameter. 0 is the default.

extended

extension parameter. 0 is the default.

Value

density (desn), probability (pesn) from the extended skew-normal distribution with given location, scale, shape and extended parameters or from the skew-normal if extended = 0. If shape = 0 and extended = 0 then the normal distribution is recovered.
