Cumulative Distribution Function of the Singh–Maddala Distribution

Description

This function computes the cumulative probability or nonexceedance probability of the Singh–Maddala (Burr Type XII) distribution given parameters (a, b, and q) of the distribution computed by parsmd. The cumulative distribution function is

F(x) = 1 - \biggl(1 + \bigl[ (x - \xi) / a \bigr]^b \biggl)^{-q}\mbox{,}

where F(x) is the nonexceedance probability for quantile x with 0 \le x \le \infty, \xi is a location parameter, a is a scale parameter (a > 0), b is a shape parameter (b > 0), and q is another shape parameter (q > 0).

Usage

cdfsmd(x, para)

Arguments

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

Value

Nonexceedance probability (F) for x.
