get.quantiles: Get quantiles for the variables in a distribution

In tfojo1/distributions:

Get quantiles for the variables in a distribution

Description

Get quantiles for the variables in a distribution

Usage

get.quantiles(dist, p, lower.tail = T, log.p = F, n.sim = 1000)

Arguments

dist	An object of class Distribution or a subclass
p	A vector of probabilities for which to get the quantiles
lower.tail	If true, the returned values are the greatest values x for each variable such that P(X \leq x) \geq p. If fale, the returned values are the smallest values x for each variable such that P(X > x) \geq p. This can be either a scalar (in which case the value is applied to all quantiles), or a vector with one logical value for each value of p
n.sim	If the values are to be calculated by random sample generation, how many random samples to generate

Details

Note to developers: This function should not be overridden directly. Insteady override do.get.quantiles

Value

If there is only one variable in the distribution, a vector of quantiles for each value of p. If p is length one, a vector of quantiles for each variable in the distribution. If there is more than one variable in the distribution and p>1, a matrix with one row for each value of p, where each column represents a variable in the distribution
