WALS (version 0.2.5)

dlaplace: Internal function: Laplace density

Description

Wrapper around dsubbotin with fixed q = 1. Uses the parametrization on pp. 131 of magnus2016wals;textualWALS.

Usage

dlaplace(x, b, log = FALSE)

Value

Gives the (log-)density.

Arguments

x

vector of quantiles.

b

\(c\) in magnus2016wals;textualWALS. Parameter of reflected generalized gamma distribution. See below for details.

log

logical; if TRUE, probabilities p are given as log(p).
