Ditribution with a Power Law
Description
Density, distribution function, quantile function and random
generation for a continuous distribution with the density
(pow+1)*(x-min)^pow/(max-min)^(pow+1)
for x
in the range [min,max]
and pow > -1
.
Usage
dpower(x, pow, min = 0, max = 1)
ppower(x, pow, min = 0, max = 1)
qpower(p, pow, min = 0, max = 1)
rpower(n, pow, min = 0, max = 1)
Arguments
x |
vector of values where to evaluate the denisty or CDF. |
pow |
degree of the power law. |
min |
minimum value of the support of the distribution. |
max |
maximum value of the support of the distribution. |
p |
vector of probabilities. |
n |
number of observations. If |
Value
dpower
gives the density, ppower
gives the cumulative
distribution function (CDF), qpower
gives the quantile function
(i.e., the inverse of the CDF), and rpower
generates random numbers.
The length of the result is determined by n
for rpower
, and is
the length of x
or p
for the other functions.
