Doc #70924 [NEW]: Return value description is incorrect

From: hunter at ellinger dot org Operating system: PHP version: Irrelevant Package: Documentation problem Bug Type: Documentation Problem Bug description:Return value description is incorrect Description: ------------ --- From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.stats-cdf-beta --- The return value described in the manual is that of a C routine that is used inside the C code that implements the PHP-callable STATS function. Within that wrapper code, the desired numerical value is returned by reference, then picked up and made the return value of the PHP-callable function. (In the case of a parameter-out-of-range error, FALSE is returned.) For all STATS cdf functions, the desired value is specified by a $which parameter at the end of the parameter list. A direct-cdf value (the cumulative probability $p corresponding to a position $x) is returned when the function is called with $x as the first parameter and a $which value of 1 as the last parameter. An inverse-cdf value (the position $x corresponding to a cumulative probability $p) is returned when the function is called with $p as the first parameter and a $which value of 2 as the last parameter. The second and third parameters of stats_cdf_beta are the distribution-defining $alpha and $beta parameters. The other stats_cdf_* functions use the same pattern, except that more or fewer distribution-defining parameters may be used depending on what is appropriate for that function. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=70924&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70924&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.5): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70924&r=trysnapshot55 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70924&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70924&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70924&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70924&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70924&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70924&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70924&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70924&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70924&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70924&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70924&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70924&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70924&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70924&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70924&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70924&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70924&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70924&r=mysqlcfg
