ddist: The general density distribution

In salauer/gdist: Generalized Distributions for Use in Functions

Description

The general density distribution

Usage

ddist(dist, x, arg_list, lookup_verbose = F, ...)

Arguments

dist	character string, specification of the distribution of interest using the abbreviations from distributions
x	numeric vector of quantiles
arg_list	list, alternative to directly using the names of the arguments for the distribution of choice, the user can provide a list with those arguments enclosed. This is useful for when multiple distributions need to be drawn from.
lookup_verbose	logical, whether to print the abbreviated name found in the dist_lookup_table
...	arguments specific to the distribution of interest (e.g. the "binom" distribution requires arguments for size and prob)

Value

a numeric vector representing the density of the distribution of interest

Examples

## use curve and ddist to visualize a distribution
curve(ddist("lnorm", x, meanlog=1.23, sdlog=0.79), from=0, to=20)
