SpecialIncompleteBeta Method (Double, Double)

public static Func<double, double> IncompleteBeta(
	double a,
	double b
)

Public Shared Function IncompleteBeta ( 
	a As Double,
	b As Double
) As Func(Of Double, Double)

public:
static Func<double, double>^ IncompleteBeta(
	double a, 
	double b
)

static member IncompleteBeta : 
        a : float * 
        b : float -> Func<float, float> 

Parameters

a

Type: SystemDouble
The first shape parameter.

b

Type: SystemDouble
The second shape parameter.

Return Value

The term 'incomplete' refers to the fact that the defining integral of the beta function is evaluated from zero up to a point between 0 and 1, so that IncompleteBeta(a, b, 1) = Beta(a, b).

There is some confusion around the use of the term incomplete beta function. It may also refer to the normalized incomplete beta function or regularized beta function, implemented by the RegularizedBeta(Double, Double) method. Care should be taken when using these methods that the correct method is called.
