R: Burr Distribution

Burr {rmutil} | R Documentation

## Burr Distribution

### Description

These functions provide information about the Burr distribution with location parameter equal to `m`, dispersion equal to `s`, and family parameter equal to `f`: density, cumulative distribution, quantiles, log hazard, and random generation.

The Burr distribution has density

f(y) = f s (y/m)^(s-1)/(m (1+(y/m)^s)^(f+1))

where m is the location parameter of the distribution, s is the dispersion, and f is the family parameter.

### Usage

    dburr(y, m, s, f, log=FALSE)
    pburr(q, m, s, f)
    qburr(p, m, s, f)
    rburr(n, m, s, f)

### Arguments

`y` | vector of responses.
`q` | vector of quantiles.
`p` | vector of probabilities
`n` | number of values to generate
`m` | vector of location parameters.
`s` | vector of dispersion parameters.
`f` | vector of family parameters.
`log` | if TRUE, log probabilities are supplied.
