Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s) References See Also Examples

Description

Function to evaluate the normalizing constant given a "triangular" prior and the HWE model, in the k=2 allele case. This prior results from marginalizing the conjugate Dirichlet prior with parameters (1,1,1) on the genotype frequencies under the alternative.

Usage

1

Arguments

nvec

vector of genotype frequencies in the order n_{11}, n_{21}, n_{22}.

Value

Normalizing constant is returned.
