The Burr Distribution

Usage

dburr(y, m, s, f)
pburr(q, m, s, f)
hburr(y, m, s, f)

Arguments

y vector of responses.
q vector of quantiles.
m vector of location parameters.
s vector of dispersion parameters.
f vector of family parameters.

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. dburr gives the density, pburr gives the distribution function, hburr gives the hazard function.

The Burr distribution has density

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

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