Thomas Neidhart commented on MATH-909:
--------------------------------------
I tested it with the latest trunk version, and the result is: 0.9730779455126357
The FDistribution relies on the Beta function, which got several improvements
in terms of accuracy since the 3.0 release.
Could you please test yourself with a more recent version of CM?
Thanks,
Thomas

> Key: MATH-909
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-909
> Project: Commons Math
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 3.0
> Reporter: Patrick Meyer
> Original Estimate: 24h
> Remaining Estimate: 24h
>
> I get an exception when running the code below. the exception is
> {code}
> function values at endpoints do not have different signs, endpoints: [0,
> 1.002], values: [-0.025, -∞]
> {code}
> The problematic code:
> {code}
> double df1 = 10675;
> double df2 = 501725;
> FDistribution fDist = new FDistribution(df1, df2);
> System.out.println(fDist.inverseCumulativeProbability(0.025));//NoBracketingException
> {code}
> However, R returns the value 0.9733505. The R code is:
> {code}
> qf(p=.025, df1=10675, df2=501725)
> {code}
> I don't know enough about the FDistribution class to know the solution to the
> exception, but I thought I would report it.
