Cumulative Distribution Function of the Rayleigh Distribution

Description

This function computes the cumulative probability or nonexceedance probability of the Rayleigh distribution given parameters (\xi and \alpha) computed by parray. The cumulative distribution function is

F(x) = 1 - \mathrm{exp}[-(x - \xi)^2/(2\alpha^2)]\mbox{,}

where F(x) is the nonexceedance probability for quantile x, \xi is a location parameter, and \alpha is a scale parameter.

Usage

cdfray(x, para)

Arguments

x	A real value vector.
para	The parameters from parray or vec2par.

Value

Nonexceedance probability (F) for x.
