qlinear: Linear failure rate quantile function

Description

Computes the quantile function of the linear failure rate distribution

Usage

qlinear(x, u = 0.5, a = 1, b = 1)

Arguments

x

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

u

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

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 hazard rate function values computed at x and u
