imakehamperks: Makeham-Perks integrated hazard rate function

Description

Computes the integrated hazard rate function of the Makeham-Perks distribution

Usage

imakehamperks(x, t = 1, alpha = 1, beta = 1, epsilon = 1)

Arguments

x

scale or vector of positive values at which the integrated hazard rate function needs to be computed

t

scale or vector of positive values at which the integrated hazard rate function needs to be computed, must be of the same length as x

alpha

the value of alpha parameter, must be positive

epsilon

the value of epsilon parameter, must be positive

beta

the value of beta parameter, must be positive

Value

• An object of the same length as x, giving the hazard rate function values computed at x and t
