DistributionPlotBinomial: Distribution Plot

Description

Plots probability density function given the parameters. May be useful when investigating parameter choice for prior distributions.

Usage

DistributionPlotBinomial(size = 200, prob = 0.5,
xlab = "Number of Successes", ylab = "Probability Mass", signif.digits = 3,
main = paste("Binomial Distribution: n =", size, "p =",
signif(prob, digits = signif.digits)))
DistributionPlotGamma(shape = 1, rate = 1, length = 100, xlab = "x",
ylab = "Density", main = bquote(paste("Gamma Distribution: ", alpha,
"=", .(signif(shape, digits = signif.digits)), ",", beta, "=",
.(signif(rate, digits = signif.digits)))), signif.digits = 3)
DistributionPlotNorm(mean = 0, sd = 1, length = 100, xlab = "x", ylab =
"Density", main = bquote(paste("Normal Distribution: ", mu, "=",
.(signif(mean, digits = signif.digits)), ",", sigma, "=", .(signif(sd,
digits = signif.digits)))), signif.digits = 3)
