dgeom_rvec: Geometric Distribution, Using Multiple Draws

In rvec: Vectors Representing Random Variables

Geometric Distribution, Using Multiple Draws

Description

Density, distribution function, quantile function and random generation for the geometric distribution, modified to work with rvecs.

Usage

dgeom_rvec(x, prob, log = FALSE)

pgeom_rvec(q, prob, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)

qgeom_rvec(p, prob, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)

rgeom_rvec(n, prob, n_draw = NULL)

Arguments

x	Quantiles. Can be an rvec.
prob	Probability of success in each trial. See dgeom(). Can be an rvec.
log, log.p	Whether to return results on a log scale. Default is FALSE. Cannot be an rvec.
q	Quantiles. Can be an rvec.
lower.tail	Whether to return P[X \le x], as opposed to P[X > x]. Default is TRUE. Cannot be an rvec.
p	Probabilities. Can be an rvec.
n	The length of random vector being created. Cannot be an rvec.
n_draw	Number of random draws in the random vector being created. Cannot be an rvec.

Details

Functions dgeom_rvec(), pgeom_rvec(), pgeom_rvec() and rgeom_rvec() work like base R functions dgeom(), pgeom(), qgeom(), and rgeom(), except that they accept rvecs as inputs. If any input is an rvec, then the output will be too. Function rgeom_rvec() also returns an rvec if a value for n_draw is supplied.

dgeom_rvec(), pgeom_rvec(), pgeom_rvec() and rgeom_rvec() use tidyverse vector recycling rules:

• Vectors of length 1 are recycled

• All other vectors must have the same size

Value

• If any of the arguments are rvecs, or if a value for n_draw is supplied, then an rvec; otherwise an ordinary R vector.

• Unlike base rgeom(), rgeom_rvec() always returns doubles.

Examples

x <- rvec(list(c(3, 5),
               c(0, 2)))
dgeom_rvec(x, prob = 0.3)
pgeom_rvec(x, prob = 0.3)

rgeom_rvec(n = 2,
           prob = c(0.5, 0.8),
           n_draw = 1000)
