getHittingTime: getHittingTime

In qiwei-li/fidcMC: Finite and Infinite, Discrete and Continuous markov chain toolkit

Description

Calculate the hitting time matrix of a markov chain if it exists

Usage

getHittingTime(i=NULL, j=NULL, mc.obj)

Arguments

i	row or rows to be returned in the hitting time matrix. Default to NULL and to return entire matrix.
j	column or columns to be returned in the hitting time matrix. Default to NULL and to return entire matrix.
mc.obj	Markov chain object created by the 'mc.create' function

Value

returns the submatrix of the hitting time matrix

Examples

singleServer = function(i,j){
  if(i==1 && j==2)
    return(1)
  p = 0.3
  q = 0.7
  r = 0
  if(j == i+1)
    return(p)
  if(j == i-1)
    return(q)
  if(j==i)
    return(r)
  return(0)
}
ex = mc.create(pijdef=singleServer, discrete=TRUE, infinite=TRUE)
ans = getHittingTime(mc.obj = ex)
