DIWPPF

DIWPPF (LET)

Library Function

Compute the discrete Weibull percent point function.

The discrete Weibull distribution has the following percent point function:

with q and denoting the shape parameters.

LET <y> = DIWPPF(<p>,<q>,<beta>)
                        <SUBSET/EXCEPT/FOR qualification>
where <p> is a positive integer variable, number, or parameter in the interval (0,1);
            <q> is a number, parameter, or variable in the range (0,1) that specifies the first shape parameter;
            <beta> is a number, parameter, or variable that specifies the second shape parameter;
            <y> is a variable or a parameter (depending on what <x> is) where the computed discrete Weibull ppf value is stored;
and where the <SUBSET/EXCEPT/FOR qualification> is optional.

LET A = DIWPPF(0.95,0.5,0.5)
LET Y = DIWPPF(P,0.3,0.7)
PLOT DIWPPF(P,0.6,0.4) FOR P = 0 0.01 0.99
