Add ggplot layer of densities from distributional objects in 1 dimension

Usage

gg_density_layer(object, scale = 1, ngrid = 501, ...)

Arguments

object: distribution object from the distributional package or dist_kde()
scale: Scaling factor for the density function.
ngrid: Number of grid points to use for the density function.
...: Additional arguments are passed to geom_line.

Value

A ggplot layer

Details

This function adds a ggplot layer of a density from a distributional object. For univariate densities, it adds a line plot of the density function. For bivariate densities, it adds a contour plot of the density function.
