plim: Left-Hand Limit of Distribution Function

In mistr: Mixture and Composite Distributions

Left-Hand Limit of Distribution Function

Description

plim is a generic function that evaluates the left-hand limit of distribution function for a distribution object at given values.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'compdist'
plim(O, q, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)

## S3 method for class 'mixdist'
plim(O, q, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)

plim(O, q, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)

## S3 method for class 'discrdist'
plim(O, q, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)

## S3 method for class 'contdist'
plim(O, q, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)

## S3 method for class 'trans_univdist'
plim(O, q, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)

Arguments

O	distribution object.
q	vector of quantiles.
lower.tail	logical; if TRUE, probabilities are P[X < x] otherwise, P[X ≥ x], default: TRUE.
log.p	logical; if TRUE, probabilities p are given as log(p), default: FALSE.

Details

Methods of plim function evaluates the left-hand limit of any offered distribution from the package mistr. The left-hand limit is defined as F(x-)=P(X<x). The function makes use of the p[sufix] and q[sufix] functions as pnorm or qbeta and thus, if a new distribution is added, these functions must be reachable through the search path.

Value

Vector of computed results.

Examples

B <- binomdist(10, 0.3)
plim(B, c(NA, 1, 3, 5))

P <- poisdist()
M <- mixdist(B, P, weights = c(0.5, 0.5))
plim(M, c(NA, 1, 3, 5))

CC <- compdist(B, P, weights = c(0.5, 0.5), breakpoints = 1)
CCC <- 2*CC+5
plim(CCC, c(NA, 1, 3, 5))
