I want to create the mixture formulation of a discrete uniform ie, say f(x) = 1/10, for i = 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 and 10 and another discrete distribution which has the same values of x, but he probabilities can vary. Can this be done on any package in R? an if so, can the package estimate the 'probabilities' of each of the x value as well as the mixing proportion if I have the data? Thanks, Jim [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
