Circular Uniform {circular}

Circular Uniform Density Function

Description

Density and random generation for the Circular Uniform distribution on the whole circle.

Usage

dcircularuniform(x)
rcircularuniform(n, control.circular=list())

Arguments

x

a vector. The object is not coerced to class circular.

n

number of observations.

control.circular

the attribute of the resulting object.

Value

dcircularuniform gives the density and rcircularuniform generates random deviates.
