unitpareto function

The unit Pareto Distribution

Density function, distribution function, quantile function, random generation.

dupareto(x, log = FALSE)
pupareto(q, lower.tail=TRUE, log.p = FALSE)
qupareto(p, lower.tail=TRUE, log.p = FALSE)
rupareto(n)

Arguments

• x, q: vector of quantiles.
• p: vector of probabilities.
• n: number of observations. If length(n) > 1, the length is taken to be the number required.
• log, log.p: logical; if TRUE, probabilities p are given as log(p).
• lower.tail: logical; if TRUE (default), probabilities are $P[X \le x]$, otherwise, $P[X > x]$.

Details

The extended Pareto distribution is defined by the following density and distribution function

for all $x>0$.

Returns

dupareto gives the density, pupareto gives the distribution function, qupareto gives the quantile function, and rupareto generates random deviates.

The length of the result is determined by n for rupareto, and is the maximum of the lengths of the numerical parameters for the other functions.

The numerical parameters other than n are recycled to the length of the result. Only the first elements of the logical parameters are used.
