Student's t Distribution
y = tdist(n,x,c)
output
degrees of freedom
x is real number lying within the range -infinity to +infinity for cdf and pdf computation. while for inverse cdf x will represent P and Q and its value will lie between 0 and 1.
It will allow the user to generate an student's t random variate with n degrees of freedom. In this case the function is independent of x and hence any value of x can be set.
It will allow the user to compute the probability density p(x) at x for a student's t distribution with n degrees of freedom.
It will allow the user to compute student's t cdf P(x)
It will allow the user to compute student's t cdf Q(x).
It will allow the user to compute inverse student's t cdf P(x).
It will allow the user to compute inverse student's t cdf Q(x).
This function is used to calculate student's t random variate, probability density, cumulative distribution functions P(x), Q(x) and their inverse.
