Subject:      generalized function for calculating quantiles
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"



Dear ALL,



We know that CDF('dist',quantile,parm-1,...,parm-k) that computes
probability in SAS is generalized form of PROBT, PROBNORM etc.



My query is there any such kind of generalized function for calculating
quantiles. I am aware of PROBIT(p), TINV(p,df<,nc>), GAMINV(p,a) etc.
which calculates quantiles for specific distributions. I want to have
generalized one which will be able to calculate quantiles for all
distributions.



Thanks in advance.



With regards

MADAN GOPAL KUNDU
