NA.Math method now applies to finite distributions.Ops methods are now available for arithmetic operations
(+, -, *, and /) on
a single distribution, along with the verbs shift(),
multiply(), invert(), and
flip().graft_left() and graft_right() are fully
functional, and slice_left() and slice_right()
are now also available.get_ prefix has been removed from distributional
quantities. get_mean() is now mean(), etc.
get_ prefix still holds for distributional
representations, like get_cdf().distribution()
instead of dst(), and checked with
is_distribution().This patch both fixes some problems in the previous release, as well as offering a step towards a bigger expansion.
randfn, a
functional representation, to the realise() and
realize() functions.probfn representation to be more specific:
pmf or densityenframe suite of functions.set_ suite of functions, after
making an empty distribution with dst().Additionally, there’s some internal rearrangement, where the
get functions call the eval functions, not
vice versa.
The first version of distplyr is now available! Its
functionality is rather limited at the moment, but is still useful,
especially for its capability to handle a discrete component of a
distribution. Here are the main features:
