dbeta(x, shape1, shape2, ncp=0) pbeta(q, shape1, shape2, ncp=0) qbeta(p, shape1, shape2) rbeta(n, shape1, shape2)
x,q |
vector of quantiles. |
p |
vector of probabilities. |
n |
number of observations to generate. |
shape1,shape2 |
positive parameters of the beta distribution. |
ncp |
non-centrality parameter. |
These functions provide information about the Beta distribution
with parameters shape1
and shape2
(and optional non-centrality
parameter ncp
). dbeta
gives the density,
pbeta
the distribution function, qbeta
the
quantile function and rbeta
generates random deviates.
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.
beta
for the beta function, and dgamma
for the
Gamma distribution.
