liesInSupport {distrEx}R Documentation

Generic Function for Testing the Support of a Distribution

Description

The function tests if x lies in the support of the distribution object.

Usage

liesInSupport(object, x)

Arguments

object object of class "Distribution"
x numeric vector or matrix

Value

logical vector

Methods

object = "DiscreteDistribution", x = "numeric":
does x lie in the support of object.
object = "DiscreteDistribution", x = "matrix":
does x lie in the support of object.
object = "AbscontDistribution", x = "numeric":
does x lie in the support of object.
object = "AbscontDistribution", x = "matrix":
does x lie in the support of object.
object = "DiscreteMVDistribution", x = "numeric":
does x lie in the support of object.
object = "DiscreteMVDistribution", x = "matrix":
does x lie in the support of object.

Examples

liesInSupport(Exp(1), rnorm(10))

# note
x <- rpois(10, lam = 10)
liesInSupport(Pois(1), x)
# better
distroptions("TruncQuantile"=1e-15)
liesInSupport(Pois(1), x)
distroptions("TruncQuantile"=1e-05) # default

M <- matrix(rpois(30, lam = 10), ncol = 3)
D1 <- DiscreteMVDistribution(M)
M1 <- rbind(r(D1)(10), matrix(rpois(30, lam = 10), ncol = 3))
liesInSupport(D1, M1)
