wgd: Weighted Geometric Distribution

In new.dist: Alternative Continuous and Discrete Distributions

Weighted Geometric Distribution

Description

Density, distribution function, quantile function and random generation for the Weighted Geometric distribution.

Usage

dwgd(x, alpha, lambda, log = FALSE)

pwgd(q, alpha, lambda, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)

qwgd(p, alpha, lambda, lower.tail = TRUE)

rwgd(n, alpha, lambda)

Arguments

x, q	vector of quantiles.
alpha, lambda	are parameters.
log, log.p	logical; if TRUE, probabilities p are given as log(p).
lower.tail	logical; if TRUE (default), probabilities are P\left[ X\leq x\right], otherwise, P\left[ X>x\right] .
p	vector of probabilities.
n	number of observations. If length(n) > 1, the length is taken to be the number required.

Details

The Weighted Geometric distribution with parameters \alpha and \lambda, has density

f\left( x\right) =\frac{\left( 1-\alpha \right) \left( 1-\alpha ^{\lambda+1}\right) }{1-\alpha ^{\lambda }}\alpha ^{x-1} \left( 1-\alpha ^{\lambda x}\right),

where

x\in \mathbb {N} =1,2,...~,~\lambda >0~and~0<\alpha <1.

Value

dwgd gives the density, pwgd gives the distribution function, qwgd gives the quantile function and rwgd generates random deviates.
