\title{Kernel density estimation}

\description{
  The generic function \code{density} computes kernel density
  estimates.

  NOTE: This man page is for the \code{density} S4 generic function
  defined in the BiocGenerics package.
  See \code{?stats::\link[stats]{density}} for the default method
  (defined in the stats package).
  Bioconductor packages can define specific methods for objects
  not supported by the default method.
}

\usage{
density(x, ...)
}

\arguments{
  \item{x, ...}{
    See \code{?stats::\link[stats]{density}}.
  }
}

\value{
  See \code{?stats::\link[stats]{density}} for the value returned by the
  default method.

  Specific methods defined in other Bioconductor packages should
  behave as consistently as possible with the default method.
}

  method.
