scipy.special.gdtrc¶
- scipy.special.gdtrc(a, b, x) = <ufunc 'gdtrc'>¶
Gamma distribution survival function.
Integral from x to infinity of the gamma probability density function,
\[F = \int_x^\infty \frac{a^b}{\Gamma(b)} t^{b-1} e^{-at}\,dt,\]where \(\Gamma\) is the gamma function.
Parameters: a : array_like
The rate parameter of the gamma distribution, sometimes denoted \(\beta\) (float). It is also the reciprocal of the scale parameter \(\theta\).
b : array_like
The shape parameter of the gamma distribution, sometimes denoted \(\alpha\) (float).
x : array_like
The quantile (lower limit of integration; float).
Returns: F : ndarray
The survival function of the gamma distribution with parameters a and b evaluated at x.

Notes
The evaluation is carried out using the relation to the incomplete gamma integral (regularized gamma function).
Wrapper for the Cephes [R424] routine gdtrc.
