incbi
Inverse of incomplete beta integral.SYNOPSIS:
double a, b, x, y, incbi();
x = incbi(a, b, y);
DESCRIPTION:
Given y, the function finds x such that:
incbet(a, b, x) = y .
The routine performs interval halving or Newton iterations to find the root of incbet(a,b,x) - y = 0.
ACCURACY:
Relative error:
