# scipy.special.nctdtrinc

scipy.special.nctdtrinc(df, p, t, out=None) = <ufunc 'nctdtrinc'>

  Calculate non-centrality parameter for non-central t distribution.

  See `nctdtr` for more details.

  Parameters:
    dfarray_like

      Degrees of freedom of the distribution. Should be in range (0, inf).

    parray_like

      CDF values, in range (0, 1].

    tarray_like

      Quantiles, i.e., the upper limit of integration.

    outndarray, optional

      Optional output array for the function results

  Returns:
    ncscalar or ndarray

      Noncentrality parameter

  `nctdtr`

    CDF of the non-central t distribution.

  `nctdtrit`

    Inverse CDF (iCDF) of the non-central t distribution.

  `nctdtridf`

    Calculate degrees of freedom, given CDF and iCDF values.

  Examples

      >>> from scipy.special import nctdtr, nctdtrinc

  Compute the CDF for several values of nc:

      >>> nc = [0.5, 1.5, 2.5]
      >>> p = nctdtr(3, nc, 1.5)
      >>> p
      array([0.77569497, 0.45524533, 0.1668691 ])

  Compute the inverse. We recover the values of nc, as expected:

      >>> nctdtrinc(3, p, 1.5)
      array([0.5, 1.5, 2.5])
