R/SDistribution_ChiSquaredNoncentral.R
ChiSquaredNoncentral.RdMathematical and statistical functions for the Noncentral Chi-Squared distribution, which is commonly used to model the sum of independent squared Normal distributions and for confidence intervals.
Returns an R6 object inheriting from class SDistribution.
The Noncentral Chi-Squared distribution parameterised with degrees of freedom, \(\nu\), and location, \(\lambda\), is defined by the pdf, $$f(x) = exp(-\lambda/2) \sum_{r=0}^\infty ((\lambda/2)^r/r!) (x^{(\nu+2r)/2-1}exp(-x/2))/(2^{(\nu+2r)/2}\Gamma((\nu+2r)/2))$$ for \(\nu \ge 0\), \(\lambda \ge 0\).
The distribution is supported on the Positive Reals.

ChiSquaredNoncentral$new(df = NULL, location = NULL, decorators = NULL)mean()The arithmetic mean of a (discrete) probability distribution X is the expectation $$E_X(X) = \sum p_X(x)*x$$ with an integration analogue for continuous distributions.
variance()The variance of a distribution is defined by the formula $$var_X = E[X^2] - E[X]^2$$ where \(E_X\) is the expectation of distribution X. If the distribution is multivariate the covariance matrix is returned.
skewness()The skewness of a distribution is defined by the third standardised moment, $$sk_X = E_X[\frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}^3]$$ where \(E_X\) is the expectation of distribution X, \(\mu\) is the mean of the distribution and \(\sigma\) is the standard deviation of the distribution.
kurtosis()The kurtosis of a distribution is defined by the fourth standardised moment, $$k_X = E_X[\frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}^4]$$ where \(E_X\) is the expectation of distribution X, \(\mu\) is the mean of the distribution and \(\sigma\) is the standard deviation of the distribution. Excess Kurtosis is Kurtosis - 3.
mgf()The moment generating function is defined by $$mgf_X(t) = E_X[exp(xt)]$$ where X is the distribution and \(E_X\) is the expectation of the distribution X.
cf()The characteristic function is defined by $$cf_X(t) = E_X[exp(xti)]$$ where X is the distribution and \(E_X\) is the expectation of the distribution X.
