qlomax: Quantile Function of the Lomax Distribution

In jimhester/surveillance: Temporal and Spatio-Temporal Modeling and Monitoring of Epidemic Phenomena

Description

Quantile function of the Lomax distribution with positive scale parameter scale (often denoted as sigma) and positive shape parameter shape (often denoted as alpha). This implementation does not include any checks, but only the raw formula scale * ((1-p)^(-1/shape) - 1). Another implementation can be found as qlomax in the package VGAM.

Usage

qlomax(p, scale, shape)

Arguments

p	vector of probabilities.
scale	positive scale parameter.
shape	positive shape parameter.

Value

Numeric vector of quantiles corresponding to the probabilities p.
