Pareto {rmutil} | R Documentation |
These functions provide information about the Pareto distribution
with location parameter equal to m
and dispersion equal to
s
. dpareto
gives the density, ppareto
gives
the distribution function, hpareto
gives the hazard function.
The Pareto distribution has density
f(y) = s (1 + y/(m (s-1)))^(-s-1)/(m (s-1))
where m is the mean parameter of the distribution and s is the dispersion.This distribution can be obtained as a mixture distribution from the exponential distribution using a gamma mixing distribution.
