cdf.discrete {RVAideMemoire}R Documentation

Cumulative Distribution Function of a known discrete distribution

Description

Returns an object similar to what is produced by ecdf, but based on a known discrete distribution.

Usage

cdf.discrete(x, dist = c("binom", "geom", "hyper", "nbinom", "pois"), ...)

Arguments

x

numeric vector of the observations.

dist

character string naming a discrete distribution ("binom" by default).

...

Details

The function is intended to be used in goodness-of-fits tests for discrete distributions, such as proposed in the dgof package.
