/*							bdtr.c
 *
 *	Binomial distribution
 *
 *
 *
 * SYNOPSIS:
 *
 * int k, n;
 * double p, y, bdtr();
 *
 * y = bdtr( k, n, p );
 *
 * DESCRIPTION:
 *
 * Returns the sum of the terms 0 through k of the Binomial
 * probability density:
 *
 *   k
 *   --  ( n )   j      n-j
 *   >   (   )  p  (1-p)
 *   --  ( j )
 *  j=0
 *
 * The terms are not summed directly; instead the incomplete
 * beta integral is employed, according to the formula
 *
 * y = bdtr( k, n, p ) = incbet( n-k, k+1, 1-p ).
 *
 * The arguments must be positive, with p ranging from 0 to 1.
 *
 * ACCURACY:
 *
 * Tested at random points (a,b,p), with p between 0 and 1.
 *
 *               a,b                     Relative error:
 * arithmetic  domain     # trials      peak         rms
 *  For p between 0.001 and 1:
 *    IEEE     0,100       100000      4.3e-15     2.6e-16
 * See also incbet.c.
 *
 * ERROR MESSAGES:
 *
 *   message         condition      value returned
 * bdtr domain         k < 0            0.0

 *
 *	Inverse binomial distribution
 *
 *
 *
 * SYNOPSIS:
 *
 * int k, n;
 * double p, y, bdtri();

 * p = bdtr( k, n, y );
 *
 * DESCRIPTION:
 *
 * Finds the event probability p such that the sum of the
 * terms 0 through k of the Binomial probability density
 * is equal to the given cumulative probability y.
 *
 * This is accomplished using the inverse beta integral
 * function and the relation
 *
 * 1 - p = incbi( n-k, k+1, y ).

 * ACCURACY:

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