cdfbin            Scilab Group            Scilab Function            cdfbin
NAME
   cdfbin - cumulative distribution function Binomial distribution 
  
CALLING SEQUENCE
 [P,Q]=cdfbin("PQ",S,Xn,Pr,Ompr)
 [S]=cdfbin("S",Xn,Pr,Ompr,P,Q)
 [Xn]=cdfbin("Xn",Pr,Ompr,P,Q,S)
 [Pr,Ompr]=cdfbin("PrOmpr",P,Q,S,Xn)
PARAMETERS
 P,Q,S,Xn,Pr,Ompr
             : six real vectors of the same size.
            
 P,Q (Q=1-P)
             : The cumulation from 0 to S of the binomial distribution. (Probablility
            of S or fewer successes in XN trials each with probability of
            success PR.) Input range: [0,1].
            
 S          : The number of successes observed. Input range: [0, XN]
            Search range: [0, XN]
            
 Xn         : The number of binomial trials. Input range: (0, +infinity).
            Search range: [1E-300, 1E300]
            
 Pr,Ompr (Ompr=1-Pr)
             : The probability of success in each binomial trial. Input range: [0,1].
            Search range: [0,1]
            
DESCRIPTION
   Calculates any one parameter of the binomial distribution given values
  for the others.
  
   Formula  26.5.24    of   Abramowitz  and    Stegun,  Handbook   of
  Mathematical   Functions (1966) is   used  to reduce the  binomial
  distribution  to  the  cumulative incomplete    beta distribution.
  
   Computation of other parameters involve a seach for a value that produces
   the desired  value  of P.   The search relies  on  the monotinicity of P
  with the other parameter.
