.cdf(x, a, b) ⇒ Object

def cdf(x, a, b)
  return 0.0 if x <= 0.0
  return 1.0 if x >= 1.0
  Math::IncompleteBeta.axpy(1.0, 0.0, a, b, x)
end

.pdf(x, a, b) ⇒ Object

Beta distribution probability density function

Adapted from GSL-1.9 (apparently by Knuth originally), found in randist/beta.c

Form: p(x) dx = (Gamma(a + b)/(Gamma(a) Gamma(b))) x^(a-1) (1-x)^(b-1) dx
