PHP stats_cdf_noncentral_t() Function


Hello folks! welcome back to a new edition of our tutorial on PHP. In this tutorial guide, we are going to be studying about the PHP stats_cdf_noncentral_t() Function.

The PHP stats_cdf_noncentral_t() function is used to calculate any one parameter of non-central t distribution specified values for the others.

Syntax

Following below is the syntax to use this function -

float stats_cdf_noncentral_t ( float $par1, float $par2, float $par3, int $which )


Parameter Details

Sr.NoParameterDescription
1

par1

The first parameter

2

par2

The second parameter

3

par3

The third parameter

4

which

The flag to determine what to be calculated


Return Value

This built-in function can return the CDF, its inverse, or one of its parameters of the non-central t distribution. The kind of the return value and parameters (par1, par2, and par3) are determined by which.

The following table list the return value and parameters by which.

  • CDF denotes cumulative distribution function.
  • x denotes the value of the random variable.
  • nu denotes the degree of freedom of the distribution.
  • mu denotes the non-centrality parameter of the distribution.

Dependencies

This built-in function was first introduced in statistics extension (PHP version 4.0.0 and PEAR v1.4.0). In this tutorial guide, we used the latest release of stats-2.0.3 (PHP v7.0.0 or newer and PEAR version 1.4.0 or newer).

Example1

In the following example below, when which = 1, calculate P from (T, DF, PNONC).

  • P is the integral from 0 to X of the non-central t-density.
  • T is the upper limit of integration of the non-central t-density.
  • DF is the degree of freedom of the non-central t-distribution.
  • PNONC is the non-centrality parameter of the non-central t-distribution.

<?php
   // which = 1 : calculate P from (T, DF, PNONC)
   var_dump(round(stats_cdf_noncentral_t(3, 2, 1, 1), 6));
?>

Output

When the above code is executed, it will produce the following result -

float(0.833559)

Example2

In the following example below, when which = 2, calculate T from (P, DF, PNONC).

  • P is the integral from 0 to X of the non-central t-density.
  • T is the upper limit of integration of the non-central t-density.
  • DF is the degree of freedom of the non-central t-distribution.
  • PNONC is the non-centrality parameter of the non-central t-distribution.

<?php
   // which = 2 : calculate T from (P, DF, PNONC)
   var_dump(round(stats_cdf_noncentral_t(0.833559426, 2, 1, 2), 6));
?>

Output

When the above code is executed, it will produce the following result -

float(3)

Example3

In the following example below, when which = 3, calculate DF from (P, T, PNONC).

  • P is the integral from 0 to X of the non-central t-density.
  • T is the upper limit of integration of the non-central t-density.
  • DF is the degree of freedom of the non-central t-distribution.
  • PNONC is the non-centrality parameter of the non-central t-distribution.

<?php
   // which = 3 : calculate DF from (P, T, PNONC)
   var_dump(round(stats_cdf_noncentral_t(0.833559426, 3, 1, 3), 6));
?>

Output

When the above code is executed, it will produce the following result -

float(2)

Example4

In the following example below, when which = 4, calculate PNONC from (P, T, DF).

  • P is the integral from 0 to X of the non-central t-density.
  • T is the upper limit of integration of the non-central t-density.
  • DF is the degree of freedom of the non-central t-distribution.
  • PNONC is the non-centrality parameter of the non-central t-distribution.

<?php
   // which = 4 : calculate PNONC from (P, DF, T)
   var_dump(round(stats_cdf_noncentral_t(0.833559426, 3, 2, 4), 6));
?>

Output

When the above code is executed, it will produce the following result -

float(1)

Example5

Following is an error case. In the following example below which<1, warning message is displayed in logs.

<?php
   var_dump(stats_cdf_noncentral_t(3, 2, 1, 0));       // which < 1
?>

Output

The above code will produce the following result and a warning in logs PHP Warning: stats_cdf_noncentral_t(): Fourth parameter should to be in the 1..4 range.

bool(false)

Example6

Following is an error case. In the following example below which>4, warning message is displayed in logs.

<?php
   var_dump(stats_cdf_noncentral_t(3, 2, 1, 5));       // which > 4
?>

Output

The above code will produce the following result and a warning in logs PHP Warning: stats_cdf_noncentral_t(): Fourth parameter should to be in the 1..4 range.

bool(false)
