Hi, I have data in the following form: index count -7 32 1 9382 2 2192 7 190 11 201 I'd like to get quantiles from the data. I thought about something like this: index <- c(-7, 1, 2, 7, 11) count <- c(32, 9382, 2192, 190, 201) quantile(rep(index, count)) It answers correctly, but I feel it's wasteful especially when count is

Good afternoon, I'd like to know how to superimpose a Student distribution pt on a histogram. I think I have to use the plot function but I don,t know the details. Other question: what is a quntile function? Can you help me? Thank you.

I think I have to use the plot function but I don,t know the details. Other question: what is a quntile function? Since I am not a statistician, I hope my answers are correct. The quantile function is the inverse of the cumulative distribution function. Maybe it is easier with an example: pnorm(0) asks how much of the probability mass (bounded between 0 and 1) is smaller or equal to this value. In...

Hi. I experimented a bit with collecting entropy from the time it takes for device_attach() to run (in CPU cycles). It seems that those times have enough variation that we can use it for entropy harvesting. It happens even before root is mounted, so pretty early. On the machine I'm testing it, which has minimal kernel plus NIC driver I see 75 device_attach() calls. I'm being very careful
