SYNOPSIS

SUBROUTINE HFNCDF(X,Cdf) REAL(kind=wp),intent(in) :: X REAL(kind=wp),intent(out) :: Cdf

DESCRIPTION

HFNCDF(3f) computes the cumulative distribution function value for the halfnormal distribution.

The halfnormal distribution used herein has mean = sqrt(2/pi) = 0.79788456 and standard deviation = 1.

This distribution is defined for all non-negative x and has the probability density function

f(X) = (2/sqrt(2*pi)) * exp(-X*X/2).

The halfnormal distribution used herein is the distribution of the variate X = abs(z) where the variate z is normally distributed with mean = 0 and standard deviation = 1.

INPUT ARGUMENTS

X The value at which the cumulative distribution function is
to be evaluated.
  X should be non-negative.

OUTPUT ARGUMENTS

CDF The cumulative distribution function value. for the halfnormal distribution

EXAMPLES

Sample program:

   program demo_hfncdf
   !@(#) line plotter graph of cumulative distribution function
   !@(#) for the halfnormal distribution
   use M_datapac, only : hfncdf, plott, label
   implicit none
   real,allocatable  :: x(:), y(:)
   integer           :: i
      call label(’hfncdf’)
      x=[(real(i),i=0,100,1)]
      if(allocated(y))deallocate(y)
      allocate(y(size(x)))
      do i=1,size(x)
         call hfncdf(x(i)/10.0,y(i))
      enddo
      call plott(x,y,size(x))
   end program demo_hfncdf
