pfolded {gendist}R Documentation

Cumulative distribution function of folded model.

Description

Computes cdf of the folded model.

Usage

pfolded(q, spec, arg, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)

Arguments

q

scale or vector of values to compute the cdf.

spec

a character string specifying the parent distribution (for example, "norm" if the parent distribution correspond to the normal).

arg

list of arguments/parameters of the parent distribution.

lower.tail

logical; if TRUE, cdf are returned, otherwise 1-cdf.

log.p

logical; if TRUE, probabilities returned are given as log(cdf).

Details

The cdf of folded model has a general form of:

F(x) = G(x) - G(-x) \quad x>0

where G(x) is the cdf of parent distribution.

Value

An object of the same length as q, giving the cdf values computed at q.
