The Exponential Poisson Distribution


Description

Density, distribution function, quantile function and random generation for the exponential poisson distribution.

Usage

dexppois(x, rate = 1, shape, log = FALSE)
pexppois(q, rate = 1, shape, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)
qexppois(p, rate = 1, shape, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)
rexppois(n, rate = 1, shape)

Arguments

x, q

vector of quantiles.

p

vector of probabilities.

n

number of observations. If length(n) > 1 then the length is taken to be the number required.

shape, rate

positive parameters.

log

Logical. If log = TRUE then the logarithm of the density is returned.

lower.tail, log.p

Same meaning as in pnorm or qnorm.

Details

See exppoisson, the VGAM family function for estimating the parameters, for the formula of the probability density function and other details.

Value

dexppois gives the density, pexppois gives the distribution function, qexppois gives the quantile function, and rexppois generates random deviates.

     ylab = paste("fexppoisson(rate = ", rate, ", shape = ", shape, ")"),
     col = "blue", cex.main = 0.8,
     main = "Blue is the density, orange the cumulative distribution function",
     sub = "Purple lines are the 10,20,...,90 percentiles")
lines(x, pexppois(x, rate = rate, shape), col = "orange")
probs <- seq(0.1, 0.9, by = 0.1)
Q <- qexppois(probs, rate = rate, shape)

lines(Q, pexppois(Q, rate = rate, shape), col = "purple", lty = 3, type = "h")
abline(h = probs, col = "purple", lty = 3); abline(h = 0, col = "gray50")
max(abs(pexppois(Q, rate = rate, shape) - probs))  # Should be 0
