dlinear: Linear failure rate pdf

Description

Computes the pdf of the linear failure rate distribution

Usage

dlinear(x, a = 1, b = 1)

Arguments

x

scale or vector of positive values at which the pdf needs to be computed

a

the value of a parameter, must be non-negative but both a and b cannot be zero

b

the value of b parameter, must be non-negative but both a and b cannot be zero

Value

• An object of the same length as x, giving the pdf values computed at x
