qpareto: Pareto quantile function

Description

Computes the quantile function of the Pareto distribution

Usage

qpareto(x, u = 0.5, alpha = 1, m = 1)

Arguments

x

scale or vector of values at which the integrated hazard rate function needs to be computed, values must be greater than m

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

alpha

the value of alpha parameter, must be positive

m

the value of m parameter, must be positive

Value

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