Method Detail

### inverseCumulativeProbability

    public double inverseCumulativeProbability(double p)
                                        throws MathException

  For this disbution, X, this method returns x such that P(X < x) = p.

  Parameters:
    `p` - the cumulative probability.
  Returns:
    x.
  Throws:
    `MathException` - if the inverse cumulative probability can not be computed due to convergence or other numerical errors.
