Factory for a DISCRETE distribution object

Description

Returns an DISCRETE distribution object that sample from the vector p_supp of options with probability the vector of probabilities p_prob.

Usage

new_DISCRETE(p_supp, p_prob, p_dimnames = "rvar")

Arguments

p_supp

A numeric vector of options

p_prob

A numeric vector of probabilities.

p_dimnames

A character that represents the name of the dimension

Value

An object of class DISTRIBUTION, DISCRETE

Note

If the second argument is missing, all options will be sample with equal probability. If provided, the second argument would add to 1 and must be the same length that the first argument
