quantile.ewcdf: Quantiles of Weighted Empirical Cumulative Distribution Function

Description

Compute quantiles of a weighted empirical cumulative distribution function.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'ewcdf':
quantile(x, probs = seq(0, 1, 0.25), names = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

x
A weighted empirical cumulative distribution function (object of class "ewcdf", produced by ewcdf) for which the quantiles are desired.
probs
probabilities for which the quantiles are desired. A numeric vector of values between 0 and 1.
names
Logical. If TRUE, the resulting vector of quantiles is annotated with names corresponding to probs.
...
Ignored.

Value

  • Numeric vector of quantiles, of the same length as probs.

Details

This is a method for the generic quantile function for the class ewcdf of empirical weighted cumulative distribution functions.

The quantile for a probability p is computed as the right-continuous inverse of the cumulative distribution function.
