dist_f {distributional}

The F Distribution

Description

Usage

dist_f(df1, df2, ncp = NULL)

Arguments

df1, df2

degrees of freedom. Inf is allowed.

ncp

non-centrality parameter. If omitted the central F is assumed.

Details

We recommend reading this documentation on https://pkg.mitchelloharawild.com/distributional/, where the math will render nicely.

In the following, let X be a Gamma random variable with parameters shape = \alpha and rate = \beta.

Support: x \in (0, \infty)

Mean: \frac{\alpha}{\beta}

Variance: \frac{\alpha}{\beta^2}

Probability density function (p.m.f):

f(x) = \frac{\beta^{\alpha}}{\Gamma(\alpha)} x^{\alpha - 1} e^{-\beta x}

Cumulative distribution function (c.d.f):

f(x) = \frac{\Gamma(\alpha, \beta x)}{\Gamma{\alpha}}

Moment generating function (m.g.f):

E(e^{tX}) = \Big(\frac{\beta}{ \beta - t}\Big)^{\alpha}, \thinspace t < \beta
