[R] Is there dpois equivalent for zero-inflated Poisson?

[Thierry Onkelinx]

Dear Matti,

What about this?

dzeroinflpois <- function(x, lambda, zero){
  ifelse(x == 0, zero, 0) + dpois(x, lambda) / (1 - zero)
}
plot(x, dzeroinflpois(x, lambda = 10, zero = 0.2), type = "l")

To call in the statistician after the experiment is done may be no more
than asking him to perform a post-mortem examination: he may be able to say
what the experiment died of. ~ Sir Ronald Aylmer Fisher
The plural of anecdote is not data. ~ Roger Brinner
The combination of some data and an aching desire for an answer does not
ensure that a reasonable answer can be extracted from a given body of data.
~ John Tukey
