Auxiliary functions for pitman

Description

Auxiliary functions for pitman.

Usage

  pdens(z, x, dfunction, ...)
  sdens(z, x, dfunction, ...)
  dens(x, dfunction, ...)

Arguments

z	numeric vector.

dfunction	a density function defining the distribution for which the Pitman estimator is computed.
...	further arguments to be passed on to the density function dfunction.

Details

dens

product of density values at x.
