## S3 method for class 'idf'
print(x, ...)
Arguments
left , right |
left and right endpoints of intervals on which the distribution function is defined. |

x |
an object of class |
... |
other arguments for printing. |

creates an object of class idf
. An idf
object
stores a distribution function defined on a set of intervals.
When left and right endpoints are identical, the intervals just represent exact points.
