[Rd] An extreme quantile of the geometric distribution

Hi, With R version 2.10.0 (2009-10-26) on Windows, I computed the p=1.e-20 quantile of the geometric distribution with parameter prob=0.1. qgeom(1.e-20,0.1) [1] -1 But this is not possible, since X=0,1,2,... I guess that this might be a bug in the quantile function, which should use the l
