udlogis: UNU.RAN object for Logistic distribution

In Runuran: R Interface to the 'UNU.RAN' Random Variate Generators

UNU.RAN object for Logistic distribution

Description

Create UNU.RAN object for a Logistic distribution with parameters location and scale.

[Distribution] – Logistic.

Usage

udlogis(location=0, scale=1, lb=-Inf, ub=Inf)

Arguments

location	location parameter.
scale	(strictly positive) scale parameter.
lb	lower bound of (truncated) distribution.
ub	upper bound of (truncated) distribution.

Details

The Logistic distribution with location = m and scale = s has distribution function

F(x) = 1 / (1 + exp(-(x-m)/s))

and density

f(x) = 1/s exp((x-m)/s) (1 + exp((x-m)/s))^-2.

The domain of the distribution can be truncated to the interval (lb,ub).

Value

An object of class "unuran.cont".

Examples

## Create distribution object for standard logistic distribution
distr <- udlogis()
## Generate generator object; use method PINV (inversion)
gen <- pinvd.new(distr)
## Draw a sample of size 100
x <- ur(gen,100)
