Student’s t distribution

mpsci.distributions.studentt.cdf(x, df)

CDF of Student’s t distribution.

mpsci.distributions.studentt.entropy(df)

Entropy of Student’s t distribution.

mpsci.distributions.studentt.invcdf(p, df)

Inverse of the CDF for Student’s t distribution.

This function is also known as the quantile function or the percent point function.

For values far in the tails of the distribution, the solution might not be accurate. Check the results, and increase the precision of the calculation if necessary.

For very small values of df, the function might spend a long time trying to find a bracket for the numerical inversion of the CDF.

mpsci.distributions.studentt.invsf(p, df)

Inverse of the survival function for Student’s t distribution.

For values far in the tails of the distribution, the solution might not be accurate. Check the results, and increase the precision of the calculation if necessary.

For very small values of df, the function might spend a long time trying to find a bracket for the numerical inversion of the CDF.

mpsci.distributions.studentt.logpdf(x, df)

Logarithm of the PDF of Student’s t distribution.

mpsci.distributions.studentt.pdf(x, df)

PDF of Student’s t distribution.

mpsci.distributions.studentt.sf(x, df)

Survival function of Student’s t distribution.

mpsci.distributions.studentt.support(df)

Support of Student’s t distribution.
