Hi Heinz, Fyi, the following site provides Matlab code that may be translated to Scilab: https://people.sc.fsu.edu/~jburkardt/m_src/asa109/asa109.html betain.m : incomplete Beta function ratio xinbta.m : inverse of the incomplete Beta function The Scilab Atoms 'Distfun' package contains:

So you have \beta(x, n+1, N+1-n) = 0.95, and you want to solve for x? fsolve will do this for a single value of the confidence. Is that sufficient? On Sun, 2020-05-17 at 23:49 +0200, Heinz Nabielek wrote: > Dear SciLabers: > > can Scilab compute the inverse of the regularized Incomplete Beta >

  Hi,  as far I remember, the underlying code is based on a very good  ACM TOMS (DiDinato, A. R. and Morris,  A.   H.  Algorithm 708: Significant  Digit Computation of the Incomplete  Beta  Function Ratios.  ACM  Trans. Math.  Softw. 18 (1993), 360-373).  Bruno -- Non à l'augmentation
