Uniform Distribution, Using Multiple Draws

Source: R/distributions.R
dunif_rvec.Rd

Density, distribution function, quantile function and random generation for the uniform distribution, modified to work with rvecs.

Usage

dunif_rvec(x, min = 0, max = 1, log = FALSE)

punif_rvec(q, min = 0, max = 1, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)

qunif_rvec(p, min = 0, max = 1, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)

runif_rvec(n, min = 0, max = 1, n_draw = NULL)

Arguments

x

Quantiles. Can be an rvec.

min

Lower limits. Default is 0. See dunif(). Can be an rvec.

max

Upper limited. Default is 1. See dunif(). Can be an rvec.

log, log.p

Whether to return results on a log scale. Default is FALSE. Cannot be an rvec.

q

Quantiles. Can be an rvec.

lower.tail

Whether to return \(P[X \le x]\), as opposed to \(P[X > x]\). Default is TRUE. Cannot be an rvec.

p

Probabilities. Can be an rvec.

n

The length of random vector being created. Cannot be an rvec.

n_draw

Number of random draws in the random vector being created. Cannot be an rvec.

Value

  • If any of the arguments are rvecs, or if a value for n_draw is supplied, then an rvec; otherwise an ordinary R vector.

Details

Functions dunif_rvec(), punif_rvec(), punif_rvec() and runif_rvec() work like base R functions dt(), pt(), qt(), and rt(), except that they accept rvecs as inputs. If any input is an rvec, then the output will be too. Function runif_rvec() also returns an rvec if a value for n_draw is supplied.

dunif_rvec(), punif_rvec(), punif_rvec() and runif_rvec() use tidyverse vector recycling rules:

  • Vectors of length 1 are recycled

  • All other vectors must have the same size

Examples

x <- rvec(list(c(0.2, 0.5),
               c(0.6, 0.7)))
dunif_rvec(x)
#> <rvec_dbl<2>[2]>
#> [1] 1,1 1,1
punif_rvec(x)
#> <rvec_dbl<2>[2]>
#> [1] 0.2,0.5 0.6,0.7

runif_rvec(n = 2,
           min = c(0, 0.5),
           n_draw = 1000)
#> <rvec_dbl<1000>[2]>
#> [1] 0.49 (0.021, 0.98) 0.76 (0.52, 0.99)
