Density Probability at a Given Value — density_at • bayestestR

Compute the density value at a given point of a distribution (i.e., the value of the y axis of a value x of a distribution).

Usage

density_at(posterior, x, precision = 2^10, method = "kernel", ...)

Arguments

posterior: Vector representing a posterior distribution.
x: The value of which to get the approximate probability.
precision: Number of points of density data. See the n parameter in density.
method: Density estimation method. Can be "kernel" (default), "logspline" or "KernSmooth".
...: Currently not used.

Examples

library(bayestestR)
posterior <- distribution_normal(n = 10)
density_at(posterior, 0)
#> [1] 0.3206131
density_at(posterior, c(0, 1))
#> [1] 0.3206131 0.2374056
