LEXHAZ

LEXHAZ (LET)

Library Function

Compute the logistic-exponential hazard function with shape parameter .

The standard logistic-exponential distribution has the following hazard function:

with denoting the shape parameter.

This distribution can be generalized with location and scale parameters in the usual way using the relation

with and denoting the location and scale parameters, respectively.

LET <y> = LEXHAZ(<x>,<beta>,<loc>,<scale>)
                        <SUBSET/EXCEPT/FOR qualification>
where <x> is a number, parameter, or variable;
            <y> is a variable or a parameter (depending on what <x> is) where the computed logistic-exponential hazard value is stored;
            <beta> is a number, parameter, or variable that specifies the shape parameter;
            <loc> is a number, parameter, or variable that specifies the location parameter;
            <scale> is a positive number, parameter, or variable that specifies the scale parameter;
and where the <SUBSET/EXCEPT/FOR qualification> is optional.

If <loc> and <scale> are omitted, they default to 0 and 1, respectively.

LET A = LEXHAZ(0.3,0.2)
LET Y = LEXHAZ(X,0.5,0,5)
PLOT LEXHAZ(X,0.7,0,3) FOR X = 0 0.01 5
