Circular Uniform: Circular Uniform Density Function

Description

Density and random generation for the Circular Uniform distribution on the whole circle.

Usage

dcircularuniform(x)
rcircularuniform(n, control.circular=list())

Value

dcircularuniform gives the density and rcircularuniform generates random deviates.

Arguments

x
