Hello,
I'm looking for a easy way to calculate the quantiles (e.g. 95% quantile) of 
the inverse chi-squared distribution. This distribution is used as a prior for 
some bayesian inference calculation, which I want to achieve analyticaly. Is it 
possible to calculate it through the inverse cdf option of the chi-squared 
function (qchisq)? The only other functions which I found for the inverse 
chi-squared are the density and random number generation function invchisq in 
the geoR-package.
If there is no easy way to calculate it, I would be glad if anybody knows where 
to find a complete set of the tabulated quantiles. Thank you very much.
Yours Ekkehart
