igami
Inverse of complemented incomplete gamma integral.SYNOPSIS:
double a, x, p, igami();
x = igami(a, p);
DESCRIPTION:
Given p, the function finds x such that
igamc(a, x) = p.
Starting with the approximate value
3
x = a t
where
t = 1 - d - ndtri(p) sqrt(d)
and
d = 1/9a,
the routine performs up to 10 Newton iterations to find the root of igamc(a,x) - p = 0.
ACCURACY:
Tested at random a, p in the intervals indicated.
