Cumulative distribution function of Weibull distribution

Extends from Modelica.Math.Distributions.Interfaces.partialCumulative (Common interface of cumulative distribution functions).

Information

Syntax

Weibull.cumulative(u, lambda=1, k=1);

Description

This function computes the cumulative distribution function according to a Weibull distribution with scale parameter lambda and shape parameter k. Equation:

y := if u >= 0 then 1 - exp(-(u/lambda)^k) else 0.0;

The returned value y is in the range:

0 ≤ y ≤ 1
