\title{Triangular Density Function}
\alias{dtriangular}
\alias{rtriangular}
\description{
Density and random generation for the Triangular circular distribution.
}
\usage{
dtriangular(x, rho)
rtriangular(n, rho, control.circular=list())
}
\arguments{
\item{x}{a vector. The object is coerced to class \code{\link{circular}}.}
\item{n}{number of observations.}
\item{rho}{concentration parameter of the distribution. rho must be
between 0 and \eqn{4/pi^2}.}
\item{control.circular}{the attribute of the resulting object.}
}
\value{
\code{dtriangular} gives the density and \code{rtriangular} generates
random deviates.
