Re: [R] 2 parameter exponential distribution

2010-01-11 Thread John Westbury
Ben, Say you have some variable (x) ~ exp f(x|lambda,theta) where f(x|lambda, theta) = lamba*(e^(minus lambda*(x-theta))) Lambda is the inverse scale parameter and theta is a location parameter (I erred in calling theta a shape parameter in the original question). John On Mon, Jan 11, 2010 at 4
