Detailed Description

Package of methods to compute Chi2 related stuff.

The following JavaScript functions for calculating normal and chi-square probabilities and critical values were adapted by John Walker from C implementations written by Gary Perlman of Wang Institute, Tyngsboro, MA 01879. Both the original C code and this JavaScript edition are in the public domain.

Member Function Documentation

critchi()

static double Chi2Helper::critchi ( double  p, int  df  )

inlinestatic

Compute critical chi-square value toproduce given p.

We just do a bisection search for a value within CHI_EPSILON, relying on the monotonicity of pochisq().

EXP_MAX_A_VALUE()

static double Chi2Helper::EXP_MAX_A_VALUE ( )

inlinestatic

Value above which exp(EXP_MAX_A_VALUE) diverges.

pochisq()

static double Chi2Helper::pochisq ( double  x, int  df  )

inlinestatic

Probability of chi-square value.

poz()

static double Chi2Helper::poz ( double  z )

inlinestatic

Probability of normal z value.

Adapted from a polynomial approximation in: Ibbetson D, Algorithm 209 Collected Algorithms of the CACM 1963 p. 616 Note: This routine has six digit accuracy, so it is only useful for absolute z values < 6. For z values >= to 6.0, poz() returns 0.0.
