Generalized Beta (Type 1) distribution#

class ctx.dist_genbeta1(a, b, p, q)#

where ctx is dec, mpm, ipm, fpm, gmp or arb.

The Generalized Beta (Type 1) distribution distribution is a continuous probability distribution with parameters \(a > 0\) and \(b > 0\), \(p > 0\), \(q > 0\), and the support interval \((0, +\infty)\).

Returns \(\text{sf}_X(x)\), the survival function (sf) of a random variable \(X\), following a Generalized Beta (Type 1) distribution:
