In the following minimised package func does not do what I want. I want
'test' to "see" NoncentralChiSquareDistribution. Instead it creates a
'Private' version. What am I doing wrong?
In[1]:= BeginPackage["test`", "Statistics`ContinuousDistributions`"]; In[
2]:= Needs["Statistics`ContinuousDistributions`"]; In[3]:= func::usage :
= "func[k] a useful function" In[4]:= Begin["`Private`"]; In[5]:=
\!\(\(
func[mask_?NumericQ] :=
10 Log[10,
Quantile[
NoncentralChiSquareDistribution[2,
2\ 10\^\((\((30 - mask)\)/
20)\)], 0.0001]];\)\) In[6]:= End[]; In[7]:= EndPackage[]; In[8]:= func[
10] Out[8]=
\!\(\(\(1\/Log[10]\)\((10\ Log[
test`Private`Quantile[NoncentralChiSquareDistribution[2, 20],
0.0001`]])\)\)\) In[9]:= Context[NoncentralChiSquareDistribution] Out[9]
=
"Statistics`ContinuousDistributions`"
TIA
