\title{Class "Weibull"}
\description{ The Weibull distribution with \code{shape} parameter \eqn{a}, by default \eqn{=1}, and
\code{scale} parameter \eqn{\sigma}{b} has density given by, by default \eqn{=1},
\deqn{d(x) = (a/\sigma) {(x/\sigma)}^{a-1} \exp (-{(x/\sigma)}^{a})}{%
d(x) = (a/b) (x/b)^(a-1) exp(- (x/b)^a)}
for \eqn{x > 0}.

\section{Objects from the Class}{
Objects can be created by calls of the form \code{Weibull(shape, scale)}.
This object is a Weibull distribution.
}
\section{Slots}{
\describe{
\item{\code{img}}{Object of class \code{"Reals"}: The space of the image of this distribution has got dimension 1
and the name "Real Space". }
\item{\code{param}}{Object of class \code{"WeibullParameter"}: the parameter of this distribution (shape and scale),
declared at its instantiation }
\item{\code{r}}{Object of class \code{"function"}: generates random numbers (calls function \code{rweibull})}
\item{\code{d}}{Object of class \code{"function"}: density function (calls function \code{dweibull})}

\item{\code{q}}{Object of class \code{"function"}: inverse of the cumulative function (calls function \code{qweibull})}
\item{\code{.withArith}}{logical: used internally to issue warnings as to
interpretation of arithmetics}

accuracy}
\item{\code{.logExact}}{logical: used internally to flag the case where
there are explicit formulae for the log version of density, cdf, and
quantile function}
\item{\code{.lowerExact}}{logical: used internally to flag the case where
there are explicit formulae for the lower tail version of cdf and quantile
function}
\item{\code{Symmetry}}{object of class \code{"DistributionSymmetry"};
used internally to avoid unnecessary calculations.}

\note{ The density is \eqn{d(x)=0} for \eqn{x < 0}.\cr
The cumulative is
\eqn{p(x) = 1 - \exp(-{(x/\sigma)}^a)}{p(x) = 1 - exp(- (x/b)^a)},\cr
the mean is \eqn{E(X) = \sigma \Gamma(1 + 1/a)}{E(X) = b Gamma(1 + 1/a)},\cr
and the \eqn{Var(X) = \sigma^2(\Gamma(1 + 2/a)-(\Gamma(1 + 1/a))^2)}{%
Var(X) = b^2 * (gamma(1 + 2/a) - (gamma(1 + 1/a))^2)}.
