title: 'algebraic.dist: Algebra over Probability Distributions'
version: 1.0.0
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.algebraic.dist
abstract: Provides an algebra over probability distributions enabling composition,
  sampling, and automatic simplification to closed forms. Supports normal, exponential,
  gamma, Weibull, chi-squared, uniform, beta, log-normal, Poisson, multivariate normal,
  empirical, and mixture distributions with algebraic operators (addition, subtraction,
  multiplication, division, power, exp, log, min, max) that automatically simplify
  when mathematical identities apply. Includes closed-form MVN conditioning (Schur
  complement), affine transformations, mixture marginals/conditionals (Bayes rule),
  and limiting distribution builders (CLT, LLN, delta method). Uses S3 classes for
  distributions and R6 for support objects.
