NTJOHNSONSUINV

Returns the inverse of the cumulative distribution function for a specified Johnson SU distribution.

Syntax

NTJOHNSONSUINV(
prob,
Gamma,
Delta,
Lambda,
Xi
)

Parameters

  • prob is a probability corresponding to the normal distribution (0<prob<1)(0<prob<1).
  • Gamma is a parameter of the distribution γ\gamma.
  • Delta is a parameter of the distribution δ(>0)\delta(>0).
  • Lambda is a parameter of the distribution λ(>0)\lambda(>0).
  • Xi is a parameter of the distribution ξ\xi.
