Or if you wish to try different values of rho f <- function(x, rho) { pnorm(-x)*pnorm((rho*dnorm(x)/pnorm(x)-x)/sqrt(1-rho^2))-0.05 } uniroot(f,c(-3,3),rho=.5) uniroot(f,c(-3,3),rho=.3) /Berend -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/help-with-R-tp2253133p2253243.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list 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.
