check_pdist

This function tests whether a given function behaves like a valid CDF by
checking if it's monotonically increasing and bounded between 0 and 1.

Provides functions for working with primary
event censored distributions and 'Stan' implementations for use in Bayesian
modeling. Primary event censored distributions are useful for modeling
delayed reporting scenarios in epidemiology and other fields (Charniga et
al. (2024) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2405.08841>). It also provides support for
arbitrary delay distributions, a range of common primary distributions, and
allows for truncation and secondary event censoring to be accounted for
(Park et al. (2024) <doi:10.1101/2024.01.12.24301247>). A subset of
common distributions also have analytical solutions implemented, allowing
for faster computation. In addition, it provides multiple methods for
fitting primary event censored distributions to data via optional
dependencies.

check_pdist function

<dl><dt>pdist</dt>
<dd>Distribution function (CDF). The package can identify base R
distributions for potential analytical solutions. For non-base R functions,
users can apply <code>add_name_attribute()</code> to yield properly tagged
functions if they wish to leverage the analytical solutions.</dd>
<dt>D</dt>
<dd>Maximum delay (truncation point). If finite, the distribution is
truncated at D. If set to Inf, no truncation is applied. Defaults to Inf.</dd>
<dt>...</dt>
<dd>Additional arguments to be passed to pdist</dd></dl>
