GeomParameter-class: Class "GeomParameter"

Description

The parameter of a geometric distribution, used by Geom-class

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("GeomParameter", prob). Usually an object of this class is not needed on its own, it is generated automatically when an object of the class Geom is instantiated.

Extends

Class "Parameter", directly.

Deprecated

The use of this class is deprecated; it is to be replaced by a corresponding use of class NbinomParameter with slot size = 1 which may be generated, e.g. by new("NbinomParameter", prob, size = 1, name = "Parameter of a Geometric distribution")

• parameter
• Negative Binomial distribution
• Geometric distribution
• S4 parameter class
