module Distribution
  # From Wikipedia:
  #    In probability theory and statistics, the beta distribution 
  #    is a family of continuous probability distributions defined 
  #    on the interval (0, 1) parameterized by two positive shape 
  #    parameters, typically denoted by alpha and beta. 
  # This module calculate cdf and inverse cdf for Beta Distribution.

    ##
    # :singleton-method: pdf(x,a,b)
    # Returns PDF of of Beta distribution with parameters a and b


    ##
    # :singleton-method: cdf(x,a,b)
    # Returns the integral of Beta distribution with parameters a and b

    ##
    # :singleton-method: p_value(qn,a,b)
    # Return the quantile of the corresponding integral +qn+
    # on a beta distribution's cdf with parameters a and b
