Description

This function computes n random variates from full-tail gamma with a rejection method.

Usage

rFTG(n, threshold, scale, shape)

Arguments

n

Sample size.

threshold

Minimum value of the tail.

scale

Scale parameter.

shape

Shape parameter.

Value

Gives random deviates of the FTG. The length of the result is determined by n.
