bdtrc

Complemented binomial distribution.

SYNOPSIS:

int k, n;
double p, y, bdtrc();
y = bdtrc(k, n, p);

DESCRIPTION:

Returns the sum of the terms k+1 through n of the Binomial
probability density:

   n
   --  ( n )   j      n-j
   >   (   )  p  (1-p)
   --  ( j )
  j=k+1

The terms are not summed directly; instead the incomplete beta integral is employed, according to the formula:

y = bdtrc(k, n, p) = incbet(k+1, n-k, p).

The arguments must be positive, with p ranging from 0 to 1.

ACCURACY:

Tested at random points (a,b,p).
