[R] Defining an ex-gaussian PDF

[Spencer Graves]

	  1.  I just got 10 hits from 'RSiteSearch("convolution of exponential 
and normal")', at least two of which look like they might interest you.

	  2.  I similarly got 27 hits from 'RSiteSearch("convolution 
distribution")', several of which mention the "distr" package, which you 
might find useful.

	  3.  I doubt if this solves your problem, but I hope you find it 
useful.  If you have other questions for this list, I encourage you to 
PLEASE do read the posting guide! 
"http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html".  It can increase the 
chances that you will get a useful reply quickly.
