public double InverseCdf(
double probability
)
Parameters
- probability Double
- A real number between 0 and 1.
Return Value
DoubleThe sample value at the specified percentile. For a bounded distribution, the method retuns the lower bound if probability is zero, and the upper bound if probability is equal to 1.
Remarks
This method returns the value x for which the probability of obtaining a sample less than or equal to x is equal to probability.
The InverseDistributionFunction(Double) function is the inverse of the Cumulative Distribution Function.
Exceptions
ArgumentOutOfRangeException | probability is less than zero or greater than 1. |
