Hello everyone!

I want to use density function of R to compute the density at x(=0, say). But it is giving me the 5-number summary and mean of the data and densities at that
point.
I just want the densities at different values specified by me. Can anyone let me
know how can I find that?

Here's what you should have done (even before posting):

?density
<Read the help page to see the structure of what density() returns.>
"Value
x   the n coordinates of the points where the density is estimated.

y the estimated density values. These will be non-negative, but can be zero."

Realize that the "specified by me" part is either going to be modified to "pick an existing estimate near my specification" or that you will need to approximate the value. So what is the actual problem (and the actual data setup) ?

Thanks in advance for your help.
