- _D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:
-
- These functions provide information about the Weibull
- distribution with parameters shape and scale. dweibull
- gives the density, pweibull gives the distribution
- function qweibull gives the quantile function and
- rweibull generates random deviates.
-
- The Weibull distribution has density given by
-
- f(x) = (a/b) (x/b)^(a-1) exp(- (x/b)^a)
-
- for x > 0. Here a is the shape parameter of the dis-
- tribution and b the scale parameter of the distribu-
- tion.
