[R] beta binomial distribution installation

[Amany Abdel-Karim]

Hello,

Thank you for your response. I need to install RankTail package since it contains the beta binomial distribution, CDF and inverse CDF in the usual form which I need to use. However rmutil package contain unusual forms for these functions. So it is easier for me to deal with the forms are contained in RankTail.

I tried to install  bioconductor package, using the following commands but I still got the following errors:


 (1) I tried biocLite() and then library ("TailRank"), I got the following errors.

> biocLite()
Error in biocLite() : could not find function "biocLite"
> library("TailRank")
Loading required package: oompaBase
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘TailRank’ in loadNamespace(i, c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[i]]):
 there is no package called ‘Biobase’
In addition: Warning messages:
1: package ‘TailRank’ was built under R version 3.4.2
2: package ‘oompaBase’ was built under R version 3.4.2



(2) I tried to write the command biocLite(), then biocLite("TailRank"), I got the following errors:

> biocLite()
Error in biocLite() : could not find function "biocLite"
> biocLite("ilRank")
Error in biocLite("ilRank") : could not find function "biocLite"
> biocLite()
Error in biocLite() : could not find function "biocLite"
> biocLite("TailRank")
Error in biocLite("TailRank") : could not find function "biocLite"




>




Also, I checked under packages on the right side of the R window and I found TailRank , Description is Tail-Rank statistic, and version is 3.1.3. So, I tried to write the following code in the console window to check if the package works:

> N<-20
> u<-3
> v<-10
> p<-u/u+v
> x<-0:N

> yy<-dbb(x,N,u,v)


I got the following error:
Error in dbb(x, N, u, v) : could not find function "dbb"




>



I am confused because if the package TailRank is already there, why the pervious code does not work to calculate dbb (x,N,u,v) and I got error? If I do not have the package, would you please let me know the right commands I should write in the script window to install TaiRank because the commands I used (which I mentioned at the beginning of the email did not work and gave errors). I appreciate your help since I am a new user of R.

Hi,
I did a quick search for other packages that provide the beta binomial distribution and found "rmutil".

> install.packages("rmutil")

The package has the CDF (pbetabinom) and inverse CDF (qbetabinom) among other functions.

HTH,
Eric

Hi there,

It looks like you also need the bioconductor package biobase, I found instructions for downloading that package here: www.bioconductor.org/install<http://www.bioconductor.org/install>

Good luck.

Cheers,

Hello,

I  tried to install package TailRank using the command install.packages (RankTail) and library (TailRank) but I got the following errors. So, how can I install TaiRank in Rstudio to have se beta-binomial distribution, CDF and inverse CDG of  beta-binomal?

The commands I used are:

> install.packages("TailRank")

Installing package into C:/Users/stator-guest/Documents/R/win-library/3.4

(as lib is unspecified)

Warning in install.packages :
