Normal Log Likelihood Function

The log likelihood of a normal density with data, x, mean and sd parameters.

liknorm(mean = 0, sd = 1, x, log = FALSE)

Arguments

mean

vector of means.
sd

vector of standard deviations.
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 normal density given the data where mean and sd 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

liknorm(x = rnorm(n = 2))
