InverseBetaRegularized

gives the inverse of the regularized incomplete beta function.

With the regularized incomplete beta function defined by , InverseBetaRegularized is the solution for z in .

Note that the arguments of InverseBetaRegularized are arranged differently than in InverseGammaRegularized.

For certain special arguments, InverseBetaRegularized automatically evaluates to exact values.
