density estimate
Hi,
I have a vector or random variables and I'm estimating the density using
"bkde" function in the KernSmooth package. The out put contains two vectors
(x and y), and the R documentation calls y as the density estimates, but my
y-values are not exact density etstimates (since these are numbers larger
than 1)! what is y here? Is it possible to get the true estimated density at
each

...differently.
there's really no point in offending people that get confused by r's
details.

Hi Lavan,
a continuous density is not restricted to be within [0, 1]. Its only
bound to have an integral of 1.
For example
dnorm(0,sd...
