Normal Log Likelihood Function

Description

The log likelihood of a normal density with data, x, mean and sd parameters.

Usage

liknorm(x, mean = 0, sd = 1, log = TRUE)

Arguments

x

vector of quantiles.

mean

vector of means.

sd

vector of standard deviations.

log

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

Details

The log likelihood is the log of a function of parameters given the data.

Value

A numeric scalar for the log likelihood of the normal density given the data where mean and sd can be held constant or if vector were given vector will be returned.

Examples

liknorm(x = rnorm(n = 2))
