Hello, Alaios,

take a look at the help page of ecdf() where it says that the result of ecdf(x) is a 'function (!) of class "ecdf"', not a vector of function values.

Take a look at what

1- ecdf(onVector)(onVector)

does, and maybe

myecdfOn <- function( x) { 1- ecdf(x)(x)}

followed by

myecdfOn( OnVector)

does what you want, and can finally be input to curve().

Dear all, I would like to calculate the complementary cumulative distribution function. As it is known, the ccdf is the 1-ecdf(X)==1-F(x). (From ?ecdf help is shown that ecdf returns a function which is the F(x)


I would like to use that function inside my function and after call curve (which accepts function as input). My code looks like that




onVector<-seq(1:100)
offVector<-seq(101:200)
myecdfOn<-function(onVector){1-ecdf(onVector)} # This gives the ccdf

curve(myecdfOn,from=1,to=max(c(onVector,offVector)), add=TRUE,lwd=2)





Unfortunately fails and I can not really see what is he problem of it.

Could you please help me?
