convolution of the double exponential distribution
Is there any R function that computes the convolution of the double exponential distribution? If not, is there a good way to integrate ((q+x)^n)*exp(-2x) over x from 0 to Inf for any value of q and for any positive integer n? I need to perform the integration within a function with q and n as arguments. The function integrate() is giving me this message: "evaluation of function gave a result of wrong length" David _______________________________________ David R.
