BinomParameter-class {distr}R Documentation

Class "BinomParameter"

Description

The parameter of a binomial distribution, used by Binom-class

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("BinomParameter", prob, size). Usually an object of this class is not needed on its own, it is generated automatically when an object of the class Binom is instantiated.

Slots

prob:
Object of class "numeric": the probability of a binomial distribution
size:
Object of class "numeric": the size of a binomial distribution
name:
Object of class "character": a name / comment for the parameters

Extends

Class "Parameter", directly.

Methods

initialize
signature(.Object = "BinomParameter"): initialize method
prob
signature(object = "BinomParameter"): returns the slot prob of the parameter of the distribution
prob<-
signature(object = "BinomParameter"): modifies the slot prob of the parameter of the distribution
size
signature(object = "BinomParameter"): returns the slot size of the parameter of the distribution
size<-
signature(object = "BinomParameter"): modifies the slot size of the parameter of the distribution
