GenExpsurvival: Survival related functions for the Generalized Exponential...

In reliaR: Package for some probability distributions.

Description

Conditional reliability function (crf), hazard function, hazard rate average (HRA) and survival function for the Generalized Exponential (GE) distribution with shape parameter alpha and scale parameter lambda.

Usage

crf.gen.exp(x, t = 0, alpha, lambda)
hgen.exp(x, alpha, lambda)
hra.gen.exp(x, alpha, lambda)
sgen.exp(x, alpha, lambda)

Arguments

x	vector of quantiles.
alpha	shape parameter.
lambda	scale parameter.
t	age component.

Value

crf.gen.exp gives the conditional reliability function (crf), hgen.exp gives the hazard function, hra.gen.exp gives the hazard rate average (HRA) function, and sgen.exp gives the survival function for the GE distribution.
