Sum of Independent Non-Identical Binomial Random Variables
Density, distribution function, quantile function and random
generation for the sum of independent non-identical binomial
distribution with parameters size and
prob.
In R console, type
install.packages('sinib')
library('sinib')
The documentation for the four main functions dsinib,
psinib, qsinib, and rsinib can be
assessed in R by typing
?dsinib
?psinib
?qsinib
?rsinib
Suppose S=X1+X2+X3 where
X1~binom(12,0.074), X2~binom(14,0.039) and
X3~binom(4,0.095). If you would like to calculate the
probability P(S=3) and P(S=20), you would do
the following.
size=as.integer(c(12, 14, 4))
prob=c(0.074, 0.039, 0.095)
x=c(3,20)
dsinib(x,size,prob)
