Hi all, The function h below is a function of c and it should be a monotone increasing function since the integrand is nonnegative and integral is taken from c to infinity. However, as we can see from the plot, it is not shown to be monotone. Something wrong with the usage of integrate function? Thanks so much for your help. Hanna
h <- function(c){ g <- function(x){pnorm(x-8.8, mean=0.4, sd=0.3, lower.tail=TRUE)*dnorm(x, mean=9,sd=0.15)} integrate(g, lower=c, upper=Inf)$value} xx <- seq(-20,20,by=0.001) y <- xx for (i in 1:length(xx)){y[i] <- h(xx[i])} plot(xx, y) [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
