\title{Generating function for Class "UnivarMixingDistribution"}
\description{Generates an object of class \code{"UnivarMixingDistribution"}.}
\usage{UnivarMixingDistribution(..., Dlist, mixCoeff,
withSimplify = getdistrOption("simplifyD"))}
\arguments{
\item{\dots}{Objects of class \code{"UnivariateDistribution"} (or subclasses)}
\item{Dlist}{an optional list or object of class \code{"UnivarDistrList"};
if not missing it is appended to argument \code{\dots}; this way
\code{UnivarMixingDistribution} may also be called with a list (or
\code{"UnivarDistrList"}-object) as argument as suggested in an e-mail
by Krunoslav Sever (thank you!)}
\item{mixCoeff}{Objects of class \code{"numeric"} : a vector of
probabilities for the mixing components (must be of same length as
arguments in \dots).}
\item{withSimplify}{\code{"logical"}: shall the return value be piped through a
call to \code{simplifyD}?}
}
\details{If \code{mixCoeff} is missing, all elements in \code{\dots}
are equally weighted.}
\value{Object of class \code{"UnivarMixingDistribution"}, or if
argument \code{withSimplify} is \code{TRUE} and the resulting
object would have one mixing component with probability (almost) 1,
\code{UnivarMixingDistribution} will return this component.}
