How to find an expected value of a conditional probability?










0















I'm new to R programming and I was just trying this question out online.



Let's say there's two positive integers with a < b , and c be a positive real number.
Now let X be a Poisson random variable with mean c.



And then let Y be the even that X is less than b and divisible by a



How to write code to determine the expected value of E(X|Y).

    You're using the R-tag. Lets have a closer look at it together: R is a free, open-source programming language and software environment for statistical computing, bioinformatics, visualization and general computing. Provide minimal, reproducible, representative example(s) along with the desired end result. Use dput() for data and specify all non-base packages with library calls. Do not embed pictures for data or code, use indented code blocks. For statistics questions, use stats.stackexchange.com.

  • Since you're new to R programming, you might not be able to write proper R code to do the simulation, but you should be able to write "pseudo-code" for it, e.g. "Simulate n values of X from the unconditional distribution". We'll help you to translate that into R code.
