| Beta-class {distr} | R Documentation |
The Beta distribution with parameters shape1 = a and
shape2 = b has density
Gamma(a+b)/(Gamma(a)Gamma(b))x^(a-1)(1-x)^(b-1)
for a > 0, b > 0 and 0 <= x <= 1 where the boundary values at x=0 or x=1 are defined as by continuity (as limits).
C.f. rbeta
Objects can be created by calls of the form Beta(shape1, shape2).
This object is a beta distribution.
img:"Reals":
The space of the image of this distribution has got dimension 1 and the name "Real Space". param:"BetaParameter":
the parameter of this distribution (shape1 and shape2), declared at its instantiation r:"function":
generates random numbers (calls function rbeta)d:"function":
density function (calls function dbeta)p:"function":
cumulative function (calls function pbeta)q:"function":
inverse of the cumulative function (calls function qbeta)
