Random Sampling of k-th Order Statistics from a Skew student t Distribution

Description

order_sstudentt is used to obtain a random sample of the k-th order statistic from a Skew student t distribution and some associated quantities of interest.

Usage

order_sstudentt(size, k, mu, sigma, nu, tau, n, p = 0.5, alpha = 0.05, ...)

Arguments

size	numeric, represents the size of the sample.
k	numeric, represents the K-th smallest value from a sample.
mu	numeric, represents the location parameter values.
sigma	numeric, represents scale parameter values.
nu	numeric, represents skewness parameter values
tau	numeric, represents kurtosis tau parameter values.
n	numeric, represents the size of the sample to compute the order statistic from.
p	numeric, represents the 100p percentile for the distribution of the k-th order statistic. Default value is population median, p = 0.5.
alpha	numeric, (1 - alpha) represents the confidence of an interval for the population percentile p of a Skew student t Distribution.
...	represents others parameters of a Skew student t distribution.

Value

A list with a random sample of order statistics from a Skew student t Distribution, the value of its join probability density function evaluated in the random sample and an approximate (1 - alpha) confidence interval for the population percentile p of the distribution of the k-th order statistic.
