I was wondering how do I actually see what's inside a function, say,
density of t distribution, dt()?
I know for some, I can type the function name inside R and the code will be
displayed. But for dt(), I get
dt
function (x, df, ncp, log = FALSE)
{
if (missing(ncp))
.Internal(dt(x, df, log))
else .Internal(dnt(x, df, ncp, log))
}
<environment: namespace:stats>
I am curious because I am doing rejection sampling and want to find a
"bigger" distribution.
