Description

Internal reldist functions.

Usage

entropy(x,xo=FALSE)

Arguments

`x`	a list with components `x` and `y`. The vector `y` are the relative density estimates at the values in the vector `x`. The latter are in the unit interval.
`xo`	a list with components `x` and `y` like the first argument. If given the relative entropy (or Kullback-Liebler divergence) of the first to the second argument is calculated.

Details

Most of these are not to be called by the user.

Value

If xo is given, the relative entropy (or Kullback-Liebler divergence) of the first to the second argument is calculated. Otherwise the entropy of the distribution specified by x.
