Hi,
I found the following strange effect with
qbinom & partial argument matching
p0 <- pbinom(0, size = 3, prob = 0.25)
qbinom(p0, size = 3, prob = 0.25) ## 0 o.k.
qbinom(p0-0.05, size = 3, prob = 0.25) ## 0 o.k.
## positional matching:
qbinom(p0, 3, 0.25) ## 0 o.k.
## partial argument matching:
qbinom(p0 , s = 3, p = 0.25) ## 1 ???
qbinom(p0-0.05, s = 3, p = 0.25) ## 1 ???
qbinom(p0-0.06, s = 3, p = 0.25) ## 0 o.K.
Unfortunately I have no I idea how to fix this.
I guess however that this will happen for other
cases as well, but I have not pursued this further.
Best, Peter
