Dear developers, I am currently writing, for a package of mine, {d,p,q,r}dist() functions for some probability laws not already found in base R. I was wondering if the Core Team would see any interest in having some or all the functions integrated in base R. I'm talking here of distributions like the Pareto, Burr, inverted gamma and, ultimately, four parameter transformed beta and transformed gamma (as named in Klugman, Panjer & Willmot, Loss Models, Second Edition, Wiley, 2004). If there is interest, I will gladly contribute patches to relevant files. I'm asking beforehand since my current implementation is simpler than what is found in random.c and I would prefer to go one route or another. Thanks in advance for any feedback. -- Vincent Goulet, Associate Professor ?cole d'actuariat Universit? Laval, Qu?bec Vincent.Goulet at act.ulaval.ca http://vgoulet.act.ulaval.ca
