The Frechet Distribution

Description

Density, distribution function, quantile function and random generation for the Frechet distribution with location, scale and shape parameters.

Usage

dfrechet(x, loc = 0, scale = 1, shape = 1, log = FALSE)

pfrechet(q, loc = 0, scale = 1, shape = 1, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)

qfrechet(p, loc = 0, scale = 1, shape = 1, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)

rfrechet(n, loc = 0, scale = 1, shape = 1)

Arguments

x, q	vector of quantiles.
loc	location parameter.
scale	scale parameter.
shape	shape parameter.
log, log.p	logical; if TRUE, probabilities p are given as log(p), default: FALSE.
lower.tail	logical; if TRUE, probabilities are P[X ≤ x] otherwise, P[X > x], default: TRUE.
p	vector of probabilities.
n	number of observations.

Details

The Frechet distribution function with location parameter m, scale parameter s and shape parameter α has density given by

f(x)=α/s z^(-α-1) e^-z^-α

for x>m, where z=(x-m)/s. The cumulative distribution function is

F(x)=e^-z^-α

for x>m, with z as stated above.

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frechet_distribution for more details.

Value

dfrechet gives the density, pfrechet gives the distribution function, qfrechet gives the quantile function, and rfrechet generates random deviates.

Invalid arguments will result in return value NaN, with a warning.
