Returns the weighting coefficient

1	ProbitWeightingCoef(Z, Q, P, C)

`Z`	numeric, ordinate to the normal distribution corresponding to the probability P
`Q`	numeric, 1-P
`P`	numeric, Probability P of expected probit
`C`	numeric, proportion of natural mortality

# Example from page 90 of Finney 1964:
# expected probit Y = 6.2, control mortality C = 59%
Y <- 6.2
C <- 0.59
P <- pnorm(Y-5)
Q <- 1-P
Z <- ProbitZ(Y)
# weighting coefficient = 0.141
