Negative Log Likelihood value of Gamma Binomial Distribution

Source: R/Gamma.R
NegLLGammaBin.Rd

This function will calculate the Negative Log Likelihood value when the vector of binomial random variables and vector of corresponding frequencies are given with the shape parameters l and c.

Usage

NegLLGammaBin(x,freq,c,l)

Arguments

x

vector of binomial random variables.

freq

vector of frequencies.

c

single value for shape parameter c.

l

single value for shape parameter l.

Value

The output of NegLLGammaBin will produce a single numeric value.

Details

$$0 < l,c$$ $$freq \ge 0$$ $$x = 0,1,2,...$$

NOTE : If input parameters are not in given domain conditions necessary error messages will be provided to go further.
