dPareto function

Density of the Pareto Distribution

Calculates the density function of the Pareto distribution

dPareto(x, t, alpha, truncation = NULL)

Arguments

• x: Numeric. The function evaluates the density at x.
• t: Numeric. Threshold of the Pareto distribution.
• alpha: Numeric. Pareto alpha.
• truncation: Numeric. If truncation is not NULL and truncation > t, then the Pareto distribution is truncated at truncation.

Returns

Density function of the Pareto distribution with parameters t and alpha evaluated at x

Examples

x <- 0:10 * 1000
dPareto(x, 1000, 2)
dPareto(x, 1000, 2, truncation = 5000)
