This is used for construction of copula \dQuote{models} with a specified parameter, as, e.g., in \code{\link{onacopula}()}. } \usage{ setTheta(x, value, na.ok = TRUE) } \arguments{ \item{x}{acopula} \item{value}{parameter value, \code{\link{numeric}} or \code{\link{NA}} (when \code{na.ok} is true.)} \item{na.ok}{logical indicating if \code{\link{NA}} values are ok for \code{theta}.} } \value{ an \code{"\linkS4class{acopula}"} as \code{x}, just with the slot \code{theta} set to \code{value}. } \author{Martin Maechler} \examples{ myC <- setTheta(copClayton, 0.5) myC } \keyword{manip}
