R: Class "GeomParameter"

distr-defunct {distr} | R Documentation

## Class "GeomParameter"

### Description

The parameter of a geometric distribution, used by Geom-class

### Objects from the Class

Objects were created by calls of the form `new("GeomParameter", prob)`. Usually an object of this class was not needed on its own, it was generated automatically when an object of the class Geom is instantiated.

### Slots

`prob`

  Object of class `"numeric"`: the probability of a geometric distribution

`name`

  Object of class `"character"`: a name / comment for the parameters

### Extends

Class `"Parameter"`, directly.

### Methods

initialize

  `signature(.Object = "GeomParameter")`: initialize method

prob

  `signature(object = "GeomParameter")`: returns the slot `prob` of the parameter of the distribution

prob<-

  `signature(object = "GeomParameter")`: modifies the slot `prob` of the parameter of the distribution

### Defunct

The use of class `GeomParameter` is defunct as of version 2.8.0; it is to be replaced by a corresponding use of class `NbinomParameter` with slot `size = 1` which may be generated, e.g. by `new("NbinomParameter", prob, size = 1, name = "Parameter of a Geometric distribution")`
