BetaParameter-class {distr}R Documentation

Class "BetaParameter"

Description

The parameter of a beta distribution, used by Beta-class

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("BetaParameter", shape1, shape2, ncp). Usually an object of this class is not needed on its own, it is generated automatically when an object of the class Beta is instantiated.

Slots

shape1:
Object of class "numeric": the shape1 of a beta distribution
shape2:
Object of class "numeric": the shape2 of a beta distribution
ncp:
Object of class "numeric": the noncentrality parameter of a beta distribution
name:
Object of class "character": a name / comment for the parameters

Extends

Class "Parameter", directly.

Methods

initialize
signature(.Object = "BetaParameter"): initialize method
shape1
signature(object = "BetaParameter"): returns the slot shape1 of the parameter of the distribution
shape1<-
signature(object = "BetaParameter"): modifies the slot shape1 of the parameter of the distribution
shape2
signature(object = "BetaParameter"): returns the slot shape2 of the parameter of the distribution
shape2<-
signature(object = "BetaParameter"): modifies the slot shape2 of the parameter of the distribution
ncp
signature(object = "BetaParameter"): returns the slot ncp of the parameter of the distribution
ncp<-
signature(object = "BetaParameter"): modifies the slot ncp of the parameter of the distribution

Examples

W <- new("BetaParameter", shape1 = 1, shape2 = 1, ncp = 0)
shape2(W) # shape2 of this distribution is 1.
shape2(W) <- 2 # shape2 of this distribution is now 2.
