gendist-package: Generated Probability Distribution Models

Description Details Author(s) References

Description

Computes the probability density function (pdf), cumulative distribution function (cdf), quantile function (qf) and generates random values (rg) for the following general models : mixture models, composite models, folded models, skewed symmetric models and arc tan models.

Details

Package: gendist
Type: Package
Version: 2.0

All the models use parent distribution(s) and thus flexible to incorporate many exisiting probability distributions.
