Why does:
(shape/scale) * (1:365/scale)^(shape - 1)
return a vector of numbers but calling a function
hasard(1:365,shape,scale)
defined like:
hazard <- function(x,shape,scale)
{
return (shape/scale) * (x/scale)^(shape - 1)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
return() is a function, its argument is returned, everything afterwards is
ignored. And shape/scalar is probably a scalar in your case...
So either change to
return((shape/scale) * (x/scale)^(shape - 1))
or simply
(shape/scale) * (x/scale)^(shape - 1)
without explicitely calling return().
}
Only return a single value? It is like x becomes a single value passed as an
argument.
Thank you.
