Fractional Binomial Distributions.

frbinom

The goal of frbinom is to generate random variables of fractional binomial distribution and compute its density, cumulative distribution, and quantiles.

Installation

You can install the development version of frbinom from GitHub with:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("leejeo25/frbinom")

Example

10 random variables of a fractional binomial distribution.

library(frbinom)
rfrbinom(n=10, size=50, prob=.6, h=.7, c=.2)
#>  [1] 34 33 40 34 39 32 34 25 34 37

The probability density of the fractional binomial distribution.
