x, q |
vector of quantiles. |
alpha, beta, mu |
shape, scale and location parameters. Scale and shape must be positive. |
log, log.p |
logical; if TRUE, probabilities p are given as log(p). |
lower.tail |
logical; if TRUE (default), probabilities are P[X ≤ x] otherwise, P[X > x]. |
p |
vector of probabilities. |
n |
number of observations. If |
Probability density function
f(x) = ((sqrt((x-μ)/β) + sqrt(β/(x-μ)))/(2*α*(x-μ))) * φ((sqrt((x-μ)/β) - sqrt(β/(x-μ)))/α)
Cumulative distribution function
F(x) = Φ(((sqrt((x-μ)/β) - sqrt(β/(x-μ)))/α)
Quantile function
F^-1(p) = (α/2 * Φ^-1(p) + sqrt((α/2 * Φ^-1(p))^2 + 1)^2 * β + μ
