Dear all,
I have the cdf of the following power fuction distribution:
F(y)=(y/350)^a ,0<y<350,
where " a " is some parameter with range a>0.
I want to use it as the argument of the discretize function of the actuar
package.
So I think I need to define this function to R so that if I entered a=1, I get
the following
F(y)=(y/350)
and if I entered a=4.5, I get the following
F(y) =(y/350)^4.5
........... and so on
I've tried
a<-vector(mode="numeric",length=1)
powercdf<-function(a,y)
(y/350)^a
But when I typed: powercdf(10,y)
instead of getting : (y/350)^10 (which is what I want)
I got : object y not found ??
I want y to remain as it is, a continous variable, not for example seq(0,350).
Thank you in advance.
