About stdlib...

We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.

The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.

When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.

To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!

Kernel Betainc

NPM version Build Status Coverage Status

Incomplete beta function and its first derivative.

Installation

npm install @stdlib/math-base-special-kernel-betainc

Usage

var kernelBetainc = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-kernel-betainc' );

kernelBetainc( x, a, b, regularized, upper )

Evaluates the incomplete beta function and its first derivative for parameters x, a > 0 and b > 0. The regularized and upper boolean parameters are used to specify whether to evaluate the regularized or non-regularized and the upper or lower incomplete beta functions, respectively.

var out = kernelBetainc( 0.8, 1.0, 0.3, false, false );
// returns [ ~1.277, ~0.926 ]

out = kernelBetainc( 0.2, 1.0, 2.0, true, false );
// returns [ 0.36, 1.6 ]

out = kernelBetainc( 0.2, 1.0, 2.0, true, true );
// returns [ 0.64, 1.6 ]

If provided NaN for x, a, or b, the function returns [ NaN, NaN ].

var out = kernelBetainc( NaN, 1.0, 1.0, true, true );
// returns [ NaN, NaN ]

out = kernelBetainc( 0.8, NaN, 1.0, true, true );
// returns [ NaN, NaN ]

out = kernelBetainc( 0.8, 1.0, NaN, true, true );
// returns [ NaN, NaN ]

If x is outside the interval [0,1], the function returns [ NaN, NaN ].

var out = kernelBetainc( 1.5, 1.0, 1.0, true, true );
// returns [ NaN, NaN ]

out = kernelBetainc( -0.5, 1.0, 1.0, true, true );
// returns [ NaN, NaN ]

If a or b is negative, the function returns [ NaN, NaN ].

var out = kernelBetainc( 0.5, -2.0, 2.0, true, true );
// returns [ NaN, NaN ]

out = kernelBetainc( 0.5, 2.0, -2.0, true, true );
// returns [ NaN, NaN ]

kernelBetainc.assign( x, a, b, regularized, upper, out, stride, offset )

Evaluates the incomplete beta function and its first derivative for parameters x, a > 0 and b > 0 and assigns results to a provided output array.

var Float64Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float64' );

var out = new Float64Array( 2 );
var v = kernelBetainc.assign( 0.2, 1.0, 2.0, true, true, out, 1, 0 );
// returns <Float64Array>[ 0.64, 1.6 ]

var bool = ( v === out );
// returns true

The offset parameter specifies the index of the first output array element, and the stride parameter specifies the stride length between consecutive output array elements.

Examples

var randu = require( '@stdlib/random-base-randu' );
var kernelBetainc = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-kernel-betainc' );

var out;
var i;
var x;
var a;
var b;

out = [ 0.0, 0.0 ];
for ( i = 0; i < 100; i++ ) {
    x = randu();
    a = randu() * 10.0;
    b = randu() * 10.0;
    kernelBetainc( x, a, b, true, false, out, 1, 0 );
    console.log( 'x: %d, \t a: %d, \t b: %d, \t f(x,a,b): %d, \t f^1(x,a,b): %d', x.toFixed( 4 ), a.toFixed( 4 ), b.toFixed( 4 ), out[ 0 ].toFixed( 4 ), out[ 1 ].toFixed( 4 ) );
}
