Sriram Natarajan closed MATH-1185.
----------------------------------
Resolution: Invalid
Consider the possibility of adding "direct tail probability computations" to
various probability distributions.
> Tail probability drops to zero beyond 10e-17 ?

> Key: MATH-1185
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-1185
> Project: Commons Math
> Issue Type: Wish
> Affects Versions: 3.3, 3.4
> Reporter: Sriram Natarajan
> Priority: Minor
>
> This could be a simple question, In which case I can expect a clarification.
> If this is the wrong place to post such a question, let me know.
> OS: Windows 8.1, Java 1.8.0_25
> ChiSquaredDistribution chisq = new ChiSquaredDistribution(23)
> 1.0 - chisq.cumulativeProbability(130) is 1.1102230246251565E-16
> 1.0 - chisq.cumulativeProbability(131) is 0.0
> Am pretty sure it is not a formatting issue. Is there a reason why the tail
> drops to zero at this point?
