Binomial Log Likelihood Function

The log likelihood of a binomial density with data, x, size and prob parameters.

likbinom(size, prob, x, log = FALSE)

Arguments

size	number of trials (zero or more).
prob	probability of success on each trial.
x	vector of quantiles.
log	logical; if TRUE, probabilities p are given as log(p).

Value

A numeric scalar for the log likelihood of the binomial density given the data where size and prob can be held constant or if vector were given vector will be returned.

Details

The log likelihood is the log of a function of parameters given the data.

Examples

likbinom(x = rbinom(n = 2, size = 3, prob = .4),
        size = 3, prob = .4)
