plus-.dist_spec function

Creates a delay distribution as the sum of two other delay distributions.

Creates a delay distribution as the sum of two other delay distributions.

Description

## S3 method for class 'dist_spec' e1 + e2

Arguments

  • e1: The first delay distribution (of type <dist_spec>) to combine.
  • e2: The second delay distribution (of type <dist_spec>) to combine.

Returns

A delay distribution representing the sum of the two delays

Examples

# A fixed lognormal distribution with mean 5 and sd 1. dist1 <- LogNormal( meanlog = 1.6, sdlog = 1, max = 20 ) dist1 + dist1 # An uncertain gamma distribution with shape and rate normally distributed # as Normal(3, 0.5) and Normal(2, 0.5) respectively dist2 <- Gamma( shape = Normal(3, 0.5), rate = Normal(2, 0.5), max = 20 ) dist1 + dist2
