get.p R Documentation
Calculate the probability of missing a given population fraction
Description
For a given sample size, returns the likelihood of missing any
fraction greater than a given size
Usage
get.p(n, f = 0.05)
Arguments
n
the number of grains in the detrital sample
f
the size of the smallest resolvable fraction
(0<f<1)
Value
the probability that all n grains in the sample have
missed at least one fraction of size f
