c.dist_spec: Combines multiple delay distributions for further processing

In epiforecasts/EpiNow2: Estimate Real-Time Case Counts and Time-Varying Epidemiological Parameters

Combines multiple delay distributions for further processing

Description

This combines the parameters so that they can be fed as multiple delay distributions to epinow() or estimate_infections().

Note that distributions that already are combinations of other distributions cannot be combined with other combinations of distributions.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'dist_spec'
c(...)

Arguments

...	The delay distributions to combine

Value

Combined delay distributions (with class ⁠<dist_spec>⁠)

Examples

# A fixed lognormal distribution with mean 5 and sd 1.
dist1 <- LogNormal(
  meanlog = 1.6, sdlog = 1, max = 20
)
dist1 + dist1

# An uncertain gamma distribution with mean 3 and sd 2
dist2 <- Gamma(
  mean = Normal(3, 0.5), sd = Normal(2, 0.5), max = 20
)
c(dist1, dist2)
