In nfultz/stats.extra: Highest Density Regions and Other Functions of Distributions

Cran Notes 2020 Oct 8

This release is primarily to update documentation. There are some performance improvements as well, especially for searching for discrete HDR.

Cran Notes 2020 Aug 5

Please reduce the length of the title to less than 65 characters.

Done.

If there are references describing the methods in your package, please
add these in the description field of your DESCRIPTION file in the form
authors (year) <doi:...>
authors (year) <arXiv:...>
authors (year, ISBN:...)
or if those are not available: <https:...>
with no space after 'doi:', 'arXiv:', 'https:' and angle brackets for
auto-linking.
(If you want to add a title as well please put it in quotes: "Title")

There is no reference paper at this time. If and when a paper is published in the future, we could submit a new version of the package with an updated DESCRIPTION file.

Please write TRUE and FALSE instead of T and F. (Please don't use 'T' or
'F' as vector names.)

We believe this is a false positive in your search.

base::T and base::F are never used.

Here are the matches:

T is used for Student's T distribution in a string:

[nfultz@nicco stat.extend]$ grep '\bT\b' R/*.R
R/HDR.R:                 paste0('Student\'s T distribution with ', df, ' degrees-of-freedom'),
R/HDR.R:                 paste0('Student\'s T distribution with ', df,

F is used in two places, one for the F distribution, and another for the cumulative distribution function as is standard in probability notation. F always is used as a function internally to this package.

[nfultz@nicco stat.extend]$ grep '\bF\b' R/*.R
R/custom.R:#' @param F a CDF of a distribution
R/custom.R:#' HDR.discrete.unimodal(.95, Q=qpois, F=ppois, lambda=1)
R/custom.R:HDR.discrete.unimodal <- function(cover.prob, Q, F, f = NULL, u = NULL, distribution = UNSPECIFIED_LABEL,
R/custom.R:  hdr(cover.prob = cover.prob, modality=discrete.unimodal, Q=Q, F=F, f=f, u=u, distribution=distribution,
R/HDR.R:                 paste0('F distribution with ', df1,
R/HDR.R:                 paste0('F distribution with ', df1,
R/HDR.R:  hdr(cover.prob, modality=discrete.unimodal, Q = qhyper, F = phyper, distribution = DIST,
R/HDR.R:  hdr(cover.prob, discrete.unimodal, Q = qgeom, F = pgeom, distribution = DIST,
R/HDR.R:  hdr(cover.prob, discrete.unimodal, Q = qbinom, F = pbinom, distribution = DIST,
R/HDR.R:  hdr(cover.prob, discrete.unimodal, Q = qpois, F = ppois, distribution = DIST,
R/HDR.R:           #Q = qnbinom, F = pbinom,
R/HDR.R:           Q = QQ, F = FF,
R/internals.R:discrete.unimodal <- function(cover.prob, Q, F, f = NULL, s = NULL, ...,
R/internals.R:  F <- partial(F, ...);
R/internals.R:  TT  <- F(MIN:MAX);
R/internals.R:  for (L in MIN:MAX) { LP     <- ifelse(L > MIN, F(L-1), 0);
R/internals.R:  P[L-MIN+1] <- F(U) - LP; }
R/internals.R:                   probability = F(U) - ifelse(L > 0, F(L-1), 0),
