quantile.Erlang: Determine quantiles of an Erlang distribution

Description

quantile() is the inverse of cdf().

Usage

# S3 method for Erlang
quantile(x, probs, ..., interval = c(0, 1e+06), tol = .Machine$double.eps)

Arguments

x

An Erlang object created by a call to Erlang().

probs

A vector of probabilities.

...

Unused. Unevaluated arguments will generate a warning to catch mispellings or other possible errors.

interval

Interval being used to search for the quantile using numerical root finding. Defaults to (0, 1e6)

tol

Tolerance of the root finding algorithm. Defaults to .Machine$double.eps

Value

A vector of quantiles, one for each element of probs.

Examples

# NOT RUN {
set.seed(27)

X <- Erlang(5, 2)
X

random(X, 10)

pdf(X, 2)
log_pdf(X, 2)

cdf(X, 4)
quantile(X, 0.7)

cdf(X, quantile(X, 0.7))
quantile(X, cdf(X, 7))
# }
