F {shrinkem}R Documentation

The (scaled) F Distribution

Description

Density and random generation for the F distribution with first degrees of freedom df1, second degrees of freedom df2, and scale parameter beta.

Usage

dF(x, df1, df2, beta, log = FALSE)

rF(n, df1, df2, beta)

Arguments

x

vector of quantities.

df1

First degrees of freedom

df2

Second degrees of freedom

beta

Scale parameter

log

logical; if TRUE, density is given as log(p).

n

number of draws

Value

dF gives the probability density of the F distribution. rF gives random draws from the F distribution.
