histprior {LearnBayes} | R Documentation

## Density function of a histogram distribution

### Description

Computes the density of a probability distribution defined on a set of equal-width intervals

### Usage

    histprior(p,midpts,prob)

### Arguments

`p` | vector of values for which density is to be computed
`midpts` | vector of midpoints of the intervals
`prob` | vector of probabilities of the intervals

### Value

vector of values of the probability density

### Author(s)

Jim Albert

### Examples

    midpts=c(.1,.3,.5,.7,.9)
    prob=c(.2,.2,.4,.1,.1)
    p=seq(.01,.99,by=.01)
    plot(p,histprior(p,midpts,prob),type="l")
