In bcallaway11/BMisc: Miscellaneous Functions for Panel Data, Quantiles, and Printing Results

makeDist

Description

Legacy name of 'make_dist' function, please use that function instead. This function will eventually be deleted.

Usage

makeDist(
  x,
  Fx,
  sorted = FALSE,
  rearrange = FALSE,
  force01 = FALSE,
  method = "constant"
)

Arguments

x	vector of values
Fx	vector of the distribution function values
sorted	boolean indicating whether or not x is already sorted; computation is somewhat faster if already sorted
rearrange	boolean indicating whether or not should monotize distribution function
force01	boolean indicating whether or not to force the values of the distribution function (i.e. Fx) to be between 0 and 1
method	which method to pass to approxfun to approximate the distribution function. Default is "constant"; other possible choice is "linear". "constant" returns a step function, just like an empirical cdf; "linear" linearly interpolates between neighboring points.
