Information

Syntax

Bates.quantile(u, y_min=0, y_max=1, n=12);

Description

This function computes the inverse cumulative distribution function (= quantile) according to a Bates distribution (= mean of n uniform distributions). Input argument u must be in the range:

0 ≤ u ≤ 1

The returned number y is in the range:

y_min ≤ y ≤ y_max
