Probabilities.MaxwellCDF Method (double, double)

Maxwell cumulative distribution function (CDF).

Syntax
C#
Visual Basic
public static double MaxwellCDF(double x, double a);
Parameters 
Description 
double x 
Function domain, zero or positive real value. 
double a 
Distribution parameter, positive real value. 

the Maxwell cumulative distribution function (CDF) for value x using the parameter a. Parameter a must be positive, value x >= 0 , otherwise the result is NAN.

Maxwell cumulative distribution is defined by the following equation: 

 

where IGamma is incomplete Gamma function. The result of MaxwellCDF is the probability that a single observation from a Maxwell distribution with parameter a will fall in the interval [0,x].
