util_binomial_param_estimate: Estimate Binomial Parameters

In TidyDensity: Functions for Tidy Analysis and Generation of Random Data

Estimate Binomial Parameters

Description

This function will check to see if some given vector .x is either a numeric vector or a factor vector with at least two levels then it will cause an error and the function will abort. The function will return a list output by default, and if the parameter .auto_gen_empirical is set to TRUE then the empirical data given to the parameter .x will be run through the tidy_empirical() function and combined with the estimated binomial data.

Usage

util_binomial_param_estimate(.x, .size = NULL, .auto_gen_empirical = TRUE)

Arguments

.x	The vector of data to be passed to the function. Must be numeric, and all values must be 0 <= x <= 1
.size	Number of trials, zero or more.
.auto_gen_empirical	This is a boolean value of TRUE/FALSE with default set to TRUE. This will automatically create the tidy_empirical() output for the .x parameter and use the tidy_combine_distributions(). The user can then plot out the data using ⁠$combined_data_tbl⁠ from the function output.

Details

This function will attempt to estimate the binomial p_hat and size parameters given some vector of values.

Value

A tibble/list
