Returns the inverse of the Pareto cumulative probability density function.

Namespace: Imsl.Stat
Assembly: ImslCS (in ImslCS.dll) Version: 6.5.0.0

Syntax

C#
public static double Pareto(
	double p,
	double xm,
	double k
)
Visual Basic (Declaration)
Public Shared Function Pareto ( _
	p As Double, _
	xm As Double, _
	k As Double _
) As Double
Visual C++
public:
static double Pareto(
	double p, 
	double xm, 
	double k
)

Parameters

p
Type: System..::.Double
A double scalar value representing the probability for which the inverse Pareto function is to be evaluated.
xm
Type: System..::.Double
A double scalar value representing the scale parameter, x_m.
k
Type: System..::.Double
A double scalar value representing the shape parameter.

Return Value

A double scalar value. The probability that a Pareto random variable takes on a value less than or equal to this returned value is p.
