\section{\nxLcs{psBezier\#}}
This macro can plot a B\'ezier spline from order $1$ up to $9$ which needs
(order+$1$) pairs of given coordinates.
%
Given a set of $n+1$ control points $P_0$, $P_1$, \ldots, $P_n$,
the corresponding \Index{B\'ezier} curve (or \Index{Bernstein-B\'ezier} curve) is given by 
%
\begin{align}
C(t)=\sum_{i=0}^n P_i B_{i,n}(t)
\end{align}
%
where $B_{i,n}(t)$ is a Bernstein polynomial $B_{i,n}(t)=\binom{n}{i}t^i(1-t)^{n-i}$,
and $t \in [0,1]$. 
The Bézier curve starts through the first and last given point and 
lies within the convex hull of all control points. The curve is tangent 
to $P_1-P_0$ and $P_n-P_{n-1}$ at the endpoint.
Undesirable properties of \Index{Bézier curve}s are their numerical instability for 
large numbers of control points, and the fact that moving a single control 
point changes the global shape of the curve. The former is sometimes avoided 
by smoothly patching together low-order Bézier curves. 
%
The macro \Lcs{psBezier} (note the upper case B) expects the number of the order 
and $n=\text{order}+1$ pairs of coordinates:

\begin{BDef}
\Lcs{psBezier}\Larg{\#}\OptArgs\coord0\coord1\coordn
\end{BDef}


The number of steps between the first and last control points is given
by the keyword \Lkeyword{plotpoints} and preset to $200$. It can be
changed in the usual way.

\section{Polynomials}

\subsection{Chebyshev polynomials}
The polynomials of the first (\Lps{ChebyshevT}) kind are defined through the identity

\[ T_n(\cos\theta)=\cos(n\theta)\] 

They can be obtained from the generating functions
\begin{align}
  g_1(t,x) &= \frac{1-t^2}{1-2xt+t^2}\\
	   &= T_0(x)+2\sum_{n=1}^\infty T_n(x)t^n
\end{align}

and

\begin{align}
  g_2(t,x) &= \frac{1-xt}{1-2xt+t^2}\\
           &= \sum_{n=0}^\infty T_n(x)t^n
\end{align}

The polynomials of second kind (\Lps{ChebyshevU}) can be generated by

\begin{align}
  g(t,x) &= \frac{1}{1-2xt+t^2}\\
         &= \sum_{n=0}^\infty U_n(x)t^n
\end{align}

\LPack{pst-func} defines the \TeX-macros \Lcs{ChebyshevT} for the first kind
and \Lcs{ChebyshevU} for the second kind of \Index{Chebyshev polynomials}.
These \TeX-macros cannot be used outside of PostScript, they are only wrappers
for \verb+tx@FuncDict begin ChebyshevT end+ and the same for \Lcs{ChebyshevU}.

\subsection{\Lcs{psPolynomial}}
The polynomial function is defined as
%
\begin{align}
f(x) &= a_0 + a_1x + a_2x^2 + a_3x^3 + \ldots +a_{n-1}x^{n-1} + a_nx^n\\
f^{\prime}(x) &= a_1 + 2a_2x + 3a_3x^2 + \ldots +(n-1)a_{n-1}x^{n-2} + na_nx^{n-1}\\
f^{\prime\prime}(x) &= 2a_2 + 6a_3x + \ldots +(n-1)(n-2)a_{n-1}x^{n-3} + n(n-1)a_nx^{n-2}
\end{align}

\noindent so \LPack{pst-func} needs only the \Index{coefficients}
of the polynomial to calculate the function. The syntax is

\begin{BDef}
\Lcs{psPolynomial}\OptArgs\Largb{xStart}\Largb{xEnd}
\end{BDef}

With the option \Lkeyword{xShift} one can do a horizontal shift to the graph of the function.
With another than the predefined value the macro replaces $x$ by $x-x\mathrm{Shift}$;
\Lkeyword{xShift}=1 moves the graph of the \Index{polynomial function} one unit to the right.

The plot is easily clipped using the star version of the
\Lenv{pspicture} environment, so that points whose coordinates
are outside of the desired range are not plotted.
The plotted polynomials are:
%
\begin{align}
f(x) & = 6 + 3x -x^2 \\
g(x) & = 2 -x -x^2 +0.5x^3 -0.1x^4 +0.025x^5\\
h(x) & = -2 +x -x^2 +0.5x^3 +0.1x^4 +0.025x^5+0.2x^6\\
h^*(x) & = -2 +(x-1) -(x-1)^2 +0.5(x-1)^3 +\nonumber\\
       & \phantom{ = }+0.1(x-1)^4 +0.025(x-1)^5+0.2(x-1)^6
\end{align}
%

The above parameters are only 
valid for the \Lcs{psPolynomial} macro, except \verb+x0+, which can also be used for the Gauss function. All
options can be set in the usual way with \Lcs{psset}.

\subsection{\Lcs{psBernstein}}
The polynomials defined by
%
\[ B_{i,n}(t)=\binom{n}{i}t^i(1-t)^{n-i} \]
%
where $\tbinom{n}{k}$ is a binomial coefficient are named Bernstein polynomials of degree $n$.
They form a basis for the power polynomials of degree $n$.
The Bernstein polynomials satisfy symmetry
\[B_{i,n}(t)=B_{n-i,n}(1-t)\]
positivity \[B_{i,n}(t)\ge0 \mbox{\qquad for } 0\le t\le1\]
normalization \[\sum_{i=0}^nB_{i,n}(t)=1\] 	
and $B_{i,n}$ with $i!=0$, $n$ has a single unique local maximum of
\[i^in^{-n}(n-i)^{n-i}\binom{n}{i}\]	
occurring at $t=\frac{i}{n}$.
The envelope $f_n(x)$ of the Bernstein polynomials $B_{i,n}(x)$ for $i=0,1,\ldots,n$ 
is given by \[f_n(x)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{\pi n\cdot x(1-x)}}\] 	
illustrated below for $n=20$. 

\begin{BDef}
\Lcs{psBernstein}\OptArgs\Largr{tStart,tEnd}\Largr{i,n}
\end{BDef}

The (\Lkeyword{tStart}, \Lkeyword{tEnd}) are \emph{optional} and preset by \verb=(0,1)=.
The only new optional argument is the boolean key \Lkeyword{envelope},
which plots the envelope curve instead of the Bernstein polynomial.

For the computatíon we use a recursive definition:

\begin{align*}
P_0(x)   &= 1\\
P_{1}(x) &= x\\
n\cdot P_{n}(x) &= (2n-1)x\cdot P_{n-1}(x)-(n-1)P_{n-2}(x)

\section{\Lcs{psFourier}}
A Fourier sum has the form:
%
\begin{align}
s(x) = \frac{a_0}{2} & + a_1\cos{\omega x} + a_2\cos{2\omega x} +
   a_3\cos{3\omega x} +
	\ldots + a_n\cos{n\omega x}\\
	& + b_1\sin{\omega x} + b_2\sin{2\omega x} + b_3\sin{3\omega x} +
	\ldots + b_m\sin{m\omega x}
\end{align}
%
\noindent The macro \Lcs{psFourier} plots \Index{Fourier sums}. The
syntax is similiar to \Lcs{psPolynomial}, except that there are
two kinds of coefficients:

\begin{BDef}
\Lcs{psFourier}\OptArgs\Largb{xStart}\Largb{xEnd}
\end{BDef}

The coefficients must have the orders $cosCoeff=a_0\ a_1\ a_2\ \ldots$
and $sinCoeff=b_1\ b_2\ b_3\ \ldots$ and be separated by
\textbf{spaces}. The default is \Lkeyword{cosCoeff}=0,\Lkeyword{sinCoeff}=1,
which gives the standard \verb+sin+ function. Note that
%%JF, I think it is better without the angle brackets, but
%%you know the conventions used better than I do, so you
%%may disagree.
%the constant value can only be set with \verb+cosCoeff=<a0>+.
the constant value can only be set with \Lkeyword{cosCoeff}=\verb+a0+.

\section{\Lcs{psBessel}}
\subsection{Default type}
The Bessel function of order $n$ is defined as
%
\begin{align}
J_n(x) &=\frac{1}{\pi}\int_0^\pi\cos(x\sin t-nt)\dt\\
       &=\sum_{k=0}^{\infty}\frac{(-1)^k \left(\frac{x}{2}\right)^{n+2k}}{k!\Gamma(n+k+1)}
\end{align}
%
\noindent The syntax of the macro is

\begin{BDef}
\Lcs{psBessel}\OptArgs\Largb{order}\Largb{xStart}\Largb{xEnd}
\end{BDef}

There are two special parameters for the Bessel function, and also the
settings of many \LPack{pst-plot} or \LPack{pstricks} parameters
affect the plot. 
These two ``constants'' have the following meaning:
%
\[
f(t) = constI \cdot J_n + constII
\]
%
\noindent
where \Lkeyword{constI} and \Lkeyword{constII} must be real PostScript expressions, e.g.

\begin{lstlisting}[style=syntax]
\psset{constI=2.3,constII=t toDegrees sin 1.2 mul 0.37 add}
\end{lstlisting}

The Bessel function is plotted with the parametricplot macro, this is the
reason why the variable is named \verb+t+. The internal procedure \verb+k+ 
converts the value t from radian into degrees. The above setting is the same as
%
\[
f(t) = 2.3 \cdot J_n + 1.2\cdot \sin t + 0.37
\]
%
In particular, note that the default for
\Lkeyword{plotpoints} is 500. If the plotting computations are too
time consuming at this setting, it can be decreased in the usual
way, at the cost of some reduction in graphics resolution.

\subsection{Modfied Bessel function of first order}
The modified Bessel function of first order is defined as
%
\begin{align}
I_\nu(x) &= \left(\frac12 x\right)^\nu
  \sum\limits_{k=0}^{\infty}  \frac{{\left(\frac14 x^2\right)}^k}{k!\Gamma(\nu+k+1)}
\end{align}
%
\noindent The syntax of the macro is


\begin{BDef}
\Lcs{psModBessel}\OptArgs\Largb{xStart}\Largb{xEnd}
\end{BDef}

The only valid optional argument for the function is \Lkeyword{nue}, which
is preset to 0, it shows $I_0$.

\section{\nxLcs{psIntegral}, \nxLcs{psCumIntegral}, and \nxLcs{psConv}}
These new macros\footnote{Created by Jose-Emilio Vila-Forcen}
allows to plot the result of an integral using the Simpson numerical integration rule. 
The first one is the result of the integral of a function with two variables, and 
the integral is performed over one of them. The second one is the cumulative 
integral of a function (similar to \Lcs{psGaussI} but valid for all functions).
The third  one is the result of a convolution. They are defined as:
%
\begin{align}
\text{\Lcs{psIntegral}}(x)    &= \int\limits_a^b f(x,t)\mathrm{d}t \\
\text{\Lcs{psCumIntegral}}(x) &= \int\limits_{\text{xStart}}^{x} f(t)\mathrm{d}t \\
\text{\Lcs{psConv}}(x)        &= \int\limits_a^b f(t)g(x-t)\mathrm{d}t
\end{align}
%
In the first one, the integral is performed from $a$ to $b$ and the function $f$ depends 
on two parameters. In the second one, the function $f$ depends on only one parameter, and the 
integral is performed from the minimum value specified for $x$ (\Lkeyword{xStart}) and the current 
value of $x$ in the plot. The third one uses the \Lcs{psIntegral} macro to perform an approximation 
to the convolution, where the integration is performed from $a$ to $b$.

The syntax of these macros is:

\begin{BDef}
\Lcs{psIntegral}\OptArgs\Largb{xStart}\Largb{xEnd}\Largr{a,b}\Largb{ function }\\
\Lcs{psCumIngegral}\OptArgs\Largb{xStart}\Largb{xEnd}\Largb{ function }\\
\Lcs{psConv}\OptArgs\Largb{xStart}\Largb{xEnd}\Largr{a,b}\Largb{ function f }\Largb{ function g }
\end{BDef}

In the first macro, the function should be created such that it accepts two values: \verb|<x t function>| 
should be a value. For the second and the third functions, they only need to accept one 
parameter: \verb|<x function>| should be a value.

There are no new parameters for these functions. The two most important ones are \Lkeyword{plotpoints}, 
which controls the number of points of the plot (number of divisions on $x$ for the plot) and 
\Lkeyword{Simpson}, which controls the precision of the integration (a larger number means a smallest 
step). The precision and the smoothness of the plot depend strongly on these two parameters.

In the example, the cumulative integral of a Gaussian is presented in black. In red, a 
Gaussian is varying its mean from -10 to 10, and the result is the integral from -4 to 6. 
Finally, in green it is presented the integral of a Gaussian from -3 to 3, where the 
variance is varying from 0.1 to 10.

\section{Distributions}
All distributions which use the $\Gamma$- or $\ln\Gamma$-function need the \LPack{pst-math} package,
it defines the PostScript functions \Lps{GAMMA} and \Lps{GAMMALN}. \LPack{pst-func} reads by default the PostScript
file \LFile{pst-math.pro}. It is part of any \TeX\ distribution and should also be on
your system, otherwise install or update it from \textsc{CTAN}. It must be the latest version. 

\begin{LTXexample}[pos=l,width=7cm]

\subsection{Normal distribution (Gauss)}
The Gauss function is defined as
%
\begin{align}
f(x) &= \dfrac{1}{\sigma\sqrt{2\pi}}\,e^{-\dfrac{\left(x-\mu\right)^2}{2\sigma{}^2}}
\end{align}
%
\noindent The syntax of the macros is

\begin{BDef}
\Lcs{psGauss}\OptArgs\Largb{xStart}\Largb{xEnd}\\
\Lcs{psGaussI}\OptArgs\Largb{xStart}\Largb{xEnd}
\end{BDef}

\noindent where the only new parameter are \Lkeyword{sigma}=<value>+ and \Lkeyword{mue}=<value>+
for the horizontal shift, which can also be set in the usual way with \Lcs{psset}.
It is significant only for the \Lcs{psGauss} and \Lcs{psGaussI} macro. The default is
\Lkeyword{sigma}=0.5 and \Lkeyword{mue}=0. The integral is caclulated wuth the Simson algorithm 
and has one special option, called \Lkeyword{Simpson}, which defines the number of intervals per step
and is predefined with 5.

\subsection{Binomial distribution}\label{sec:bindistri}
\begin{sloppypar}
The following five macros plot binomial probability mass function \Lcs{psBinomial} and \Lcs{psBinomialC} in curve style, the normalized one is \Lcs{psBinomialN}. The cumulative distribution function 
$F$ \Lcs{psBinomialF} and the complement of the cumulative distribution function ($1-F$) \Lcs{psBinomialFS}
The vertical range for the plots is the $y$-Intervall $[0;1]$.
Rescaling other values can be done by setting the \Lkeyword{yunit} option
to any other value.
\end{sloppypar}

The binomial distribution \Lcs{psBinomial} gives the discrete probability distribution $P_p(n|N)$ $n$ successes out of $N$ Bernoulli trials (where the result of each Bernoulli trial is true with probability $p$ and false with probability $q=1-p$). The binomial distribution is therefore given by

\begin{align}
P_p(n|N) &= \binom{N}{n}p^nq^{N-n} \\
         &= \frac{N!}{n!(N-n)!}p^n(1-p)^{N-n},
\end{align}

where $(N; n)$ is a binomial coefficient and $P$ the probability.

The syntax is:

\begin{BDef}
\Lcs{psBinomial}\OptArgs\Largb{N}\Largb{probability p}\\
\Lcs{psBinomial}\OptArgs\Largb{m,N}\Largb{probability p}\\
\Lcs{psBinomial}\OptArgs\Largb{m,n,N}\Largb{probability p}\\
\Lcs{psBinomialC}\OptArgs\Largb{N}\Largb{probability p}\\
\Lcs{psBinomialN}\OptArgs\Largb{N}\Largb{probability p}\\
\Lcs{psBinomialF}\OptArgs\Largb{N}\Largb{probability p}\\
\Lcs{psBinomialF}\OptArgs\Largb{m,N}\Largb{probability p}\\
\Lcs{psBinomialF}\OptArgs\Largb{m,n,N}\Largb{probability p}\\
\Lcs{psBinomialFS}\OptArgs\Largb{N}\Largb{probability p}\\
\Lcs{psBinomialFS}\OptArgs\Largb{m,N}\Largb{probability p}\\
\Lcs{psBinomialFS}\OptArgs\Largb{m,n,N}\Largb{probability p}
\end{BDef}

\begin{itemize}
\item with one argument $N$ the sequence $0\ldots N$ is calculated and plotted
\item with two arguments $m,N$ the sequence $0\ldots N$ is calculated and
    the sequence $m\ldots N$ is plotted
\item with three arguments $m,n,N$ the sequence $0\ldots N$ is calculated and
    the sequence $m\ldots n$ is plotted
\end{itemize}

Now \Lcs{psBinomial}, \Lcs{psBinomialF} and \Lcs{psBinomialFS} uses a new code, so the old restriction in using the value for $N$ (old: $N<100$) is no longer valid. A new limit vor $N$ is not searched and it's not found.
The valid options for the macros are \Lkeyword{markZeros} to draw rectangles instead
of a continous line and \Lkeyword{printValue} for printing the $y$-values in the color LabelColor $=$ color on top of the lines in distance labelsep and xlabelsep, rotated by labelangle $=\alpha$. For this option all other options from section~1
for the macro \Lcs{psPrintValue} are valid, too.~ \cite{pst-tools}  Important is the keyword \Lkeyword{valuewidth}
which is preset to 15. If your value has more characters when converting into a string, it will
not be printed or cause an GhostScript error.

Special options are
\begin{itemize}
\item \Lkeyword{barwidth}, which is a factor (no dimension) and set by default to 1. This option is not valid for
the macro \Lcs{psBinomialN}!
\item \Lkeyword{alternateColors} is a new fillstyle, so the colors alternates between \Lkeyword{fillcolorA} and \Lkeyword{fillcolorB}, only valid for \Lcs{psBinomial}.
\item \Lkeyword{fillcolorA} alternate color one.
\item \Lkeyword{fillcolorB} alternate color two.
\item \Lkeyword{labelangle} is the rotation of the printed values, default is 90\textdegree
\item \Lkeyword{xlabelsep} is the x-separation of the printed values, default is 0 (no dimension)
\item \Lkeyword{labelsep} is the y-separation of the printed values, default is 0.2 (no dimension)
\item \Lkeyword{LabelColor} is the color of the printed values, default is black
\item \Lkeyword{PrintVLimit} is the value limit for the printed values, default is $1e-64$, smaller values are not printed.
\item \Lkeyword{Switch2Log} is the value for $N$ where the new calculation is used, default is $80$.
\item \Lkeyword{LineEnding} this boolean is only valid for the macros \Lcs{psBinomialF} and \Lcs{psBinomialFS}, default is true. Draws circles at the end of the lines
\item \Lkeyword{VLines} this option is only valid for the macros \Lcs{psBinomialF} and \Lcs{psBinomialFS}, default is false. Draws the vertical lines dashed.
\item \Lkeyword{rightEnd}, this option is only valid for the macros \Lcs{psBinomialF} and \Lcs{psBinomialFS} when LineEnding=true (default) and $n=N$, default is 2
\item \Lkeyword{leftEnd}, this option is only valid for the macros \Lcs{psBinomialF} and \Lcs{psBinomialFS} when LineEnding=true (default) and $m=0$, default is 1
\item \Lkeyword{radiusout}, this option is only valid for the macros \Lcs{psBinomialF} and \Lcs{psBinomialFS} when LineEnding=true (default) for the outer radius of the both dots left and right, default is 2
\item \Lkeyword{radiusinL}, this option is only valid for the macros \Lcs{psBinomialF} and \Lcs{psBinomialFS} when LineEnding=true (default) for the inner radius of the left dot, default is 0
\item \Lkeyword{radiusinR}, this option is only valid for the macros \Lcs{psBinomialF} and \Lcs{psBinomialFS} when LineEnding=true (default) for the inner radius of the right dot, default is 1.5
\item \Lkeyword{LineEndColorL} this option is only valid for the macros \Lcs{psBinomialF} and \Lcs{psBinomialFS} when LineEnding=true (default) for the color of the left dot, default is green
\item \Lkeyword{LineEndColorR} this option is only valid for the macros \Lcs{psBinomialF} and \Lcs{psBinomialFS} when LineEnding=true (default) for the inner radius of the right dot, default is red
\item \Lkeyword{LeftClipX} gives the left end of the clipping area for \Lcs{psBinomialC}, default is $-1$.
\item \Lkeyword{RightClipX} gives the distance to $N$ for the right end of the clipping area for \Lcs{psBinomialC}, default is $1$.

The default binomial distribution has the mean of $\mu=E(X)=N\cdot p$
and a variant of $\sigma^2=\mu\cdot(1-p)$.
The normalized distribution has a mean of $0$. Instead of $P(X=k)$
we use $P(Z=z)$ with $Z=\dfrac{X-E(X)}{\sigma(X)}$ and $P\leftarrow P\cdot\sigma$.
The macros use the recursive definition of the binomial distribution:
%
\begin{align}
P(k) = P(k-1)\cdot\frac{N-k+1}{k}\cdot\frac{p}{1-p}
\end{align}

\subsection{Poisson distribution}
Given a Poisson process\footnote{\url{http://mathworld.wolfram.com/PoissonProcess.html}}, 
the probability of obtaining exactly $n$ successes in $N$ trials is given by the 
limit of a binomial distribution (see Section~\ref{sec:bindistri})
%
\begin{align}
P_p(n|N) = \frac{N!}{n!(N-n)!}\cdot p^n(1-p)^{N-n}\label{eq:normaldistri}
\end{align}
%
Viewing the distribution as a function of the expected number of successes;
%	
\begin{align}\label{eq:nu}
\lambda = N\cdot p
\end{align}
%
instead of the sample size $N$ for fixed $p$, equation (2) then becomes
\eqref{eq:normaldistri};
%	
\begin{align}\label{eq:nuN}
P_{\frac{\lambda}{n}}(n|N) = \frac{N!}{n!(N-n)!}{\frac{\lambda}{N}}^n {\frac{1-\lambda}{N}}^{N-n}
\end{align}
%
Viewing the distribution as a function of the expected number of successes;
%
\[ P_\lambda(X=k)=\frac{\lambda^k}{k!}\,e^{-\lambda} \].
%
Letting the sample size become large ($N\to\infty$), the distribution then 
approaches (with $p=\frac{\lambda}{n}$):
%
\begin{align}
\lim_{n\to\infty} P(X=k) &= \lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{n!}{(n-k)!\,k!}
	 \left(\frac{\lambda}{n}\right)^k \left(1-\frac{\lambda}{n}\right)^{n-k} \\
  &= \lim_{n\to\infty} \left(\frac{(n-k)!\cdot (n-k+1)\cdots(n-2)(n-1)n}{(n-k)!\,n^k}\right)\cdot\\
  &\qquad \left(\frac{\lambda^k}{k!}\right)\left(1-\frac{\lambda}{n}\right)^n 
	\left(1-\frac{\lambda}{n}\right)^{-k}\\
  &= \frac{\lambda^k}{k!}\cdot \lim_{n\to\infty}
     \underbrace{\left(\frac{n}{n}\cdot \frac{n-1}{n}\cdot\frac{n-2}{n}\cdot\ldots\cdot 
    	\frac{n-k+1}{n}\right)}_{\to 1} \cdot\\
  &\qquad   \underbrace{\left(1-\frac{\lambda}{n}\right)^n}_{\to{e^{-\lambda}}}  
     \underbrace{\left(1-\frac{\lambda}{n}\right)^{-k}}_{\to 1}\\
  &=  \lambda^k e^{\frac{-\lambda}{k!}}
\end{align}

times between Poisson distributed events are relevant. Gamma distributions have 
two free parameters, labeled $\alpha$ and $\beta$. It is defined as
%
\[

%\subsection{$\chi^2$-distribution}
The $\chi^2$-distribution is a continuous probability distribution. It
usually arises when a $k$-dimensional vector's orthogonal components are 
independent and each follow a standard normal distribution. 
The length of the vector will then have a $\chi^2$-distribution.

\iffalse
If Y_i have normal independent  distributions with mean 0 and variance 1, then
chi^2=sum_(i==1)^rY_i^2	
(1)

is distributed as chi^2 with r degrees of freedom. This makes a chi^2 distribution 
a gamma distribution with theta=2 and alpha=r/2, where r is the number of degrees of freedom.

More generally, if chi_i^2 are independently distributed according to a chi^2 
distribution with r_1, r_2, ..., r_k degrees of freedom, then
sum_(j==1)^kchi_j^2	

is distributed according to chi^2 with r=sum_(j==1)^(k)r_j degrees of freedom. 
\fi

The $\chi^2$ with parameter $\nu$ is the same as a Gamma distribution 
with $\alpha=\nu/2$ and $\beta=1/2$ and the syntax

Beta distributions have two free parameters, which are labeled according to one of two

or slightly different as

\begin{align}
P(x) &= \frac{\alpha}{\beta}\,x^{\alpha-1} e^{-\frac{x^\alpha}{\beta}}\\
D(x) &= 1 - e^{-\frac{x^\alpha}{\beta}}
\end{align}

always for $x\in[0;\infty)$, where $\alpha > 0$ is the shape parameter
and $\beta > 0$ is the scale parameter of the distribution. 

$D(x)$ is the cumulative distribution function of the Weibull distribution. The values for
$\alpha$ and $\beta$ are preset to 1, but can be changed in the usual way.

The Weibull distribution is related to a number of other probability distributions; in 
particular, it interpolates between the exponential distribution $(\alpha = 1)$ and
the  Rayleigh distribution $(\alpha = 2)$.

The starting value for $x$ should always be 0 or greater, if it is
less than 0 then the macro draws a line from (\#1,0) to (0,0) and
starts \Lcs{psWeinbull} with 0.

\subsection{Vasicek distribution}

For a homogenous portfolio of infinite granularity the portfolio loss 
distribution is given by 
\[ 
\mathbb{P}(L(P)<x)=1-\mathcal{N}
  \left(\frac{\mathcal{N}^{-1}(PD)-\sqrt{1-R2}\cdot\mathcal{N}^{-1}(x)}{R} 
  \right)
\]
$L(P)$ denotes the portfolio loss in percent, $pd$ is the uniform default 
probability, and $R2$ is the uniform asset correlation.

They are preset to $pd=0.22$ and $R2=0.11$ and can be overwritten in the
usual way. The macro uses the PostScript function norminv from the package 
\LPack{pst-math} which is loaded by default and also shown in the following
example.

\section{Special Functions}
\subsection{\nxLcs{psLorenz} -- Lorenz curve}
The so-called \Index{Lorenz curve} is used in economics to describe inequality in
wealth or size. The Lorenz curve is a function of the cumulative proportion of
\textit{ordered individuals} mapped onto the corresponding cumulative proportion
of their size. Given a sample of $n^{\textup{th}}$ ordered individuals with
$x_i^{\prime}$ the size of individual $i$ and $x_1^{\prime}<x_2^{\prime}<\cdots<x_n^{\prime}$,
then the sample Lorenz curve is the \textit{polygon} joining the points $(h/n,L_h/L_n)$,
where $h=0, 1, 2,\ldots n, L_0=0$ and $L_h=\sum_{i=1}^h x_i^{\prime}$. 

\begin{BDef}
\LcsStar{psLorenz}\OptArgs\OptArg*{<X data>}\Largb{Y data}
\end{BDef}


Without  defining data for the x values the Y data will be sorted
and then printed over the relativ x values. For example: 5 y values
will be printed for $x\in[0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1]$

\subsection{\nxLcs{psLame} -- Lam\'e Curve, a superellipse}
A superellipse is a curve with Cartesian equation
%	
\begin{align}
\left|\frac{x}{a}\right|^r + \left|\frac{y}{b}\right|^r =1
\end{align}
%
first discussed in 1818 by Gabriel Lam\'e (1795--1870)%
\footnote{Lam\'e worked on a wide variety of different topics. 
His work on differential geometry and contributions to Fermat's Last Theorem 
are important. He proved the theorem for $n = 7$ in 1839.}. 
A superellipse may be described parametrically by
%
\begin{align}
x &= a\cdot\cos^{\frac{2}{r}} t\\
y &= b\cdot\sin^{\frac{2}{r}} t
\end{align}
%			
\Index{Superellipses} with $a=b$ are also known as \Index{Lam\'e} curves
or Lam\'e ovals and the restriction to $r>2$ is sometimes also made.
The following table summarizes a few special cases.
\Index{Piet Hein} used $\frac{5}{2}$ with a number of different 
$\frac{a}{b}$ ratios for various of his projects.
For example, he used $\frac{a}{b}=\frac{6}{5}$ for Sergels Torg 
(Sergel's Square) in Stockholm, and $\frac{a}{b}=\frac{3}{2}$ for his table.

\begin{center}
\begin{tabular}{@{}llm{1.5cm}@{}}

\end{tabular}
\end{center}

If $r$ is a rational, then a \Index{superellipse} is algebraic. However, for irrational $r$, 
it is transcendental. For even integers $r=n$, the curve becomes closer to a 
rectangle as $n$ increases. The syntax of the \Lcs{psLame} macro is:

\begin{BDef}
\Lcs{psLame}\OptArgs\Largb{r}
\end{BDef}

It is internally plotted as a \Index{parametric plot} with $0\le\alpha\le360$. Available keywords
are \Lkeyword{radiusA} and \Lkeyword{radiusB}, both are preset to 1, but can have any valid value
and unit.

\subsection{\nxLcs{psThomae} -- the popcorn function}
\Index{Thomae's function}, also known as the \Index{popcorn function}, 
the \Index{raindrop function}, the \Index{ruler function} or the 
\Index{Riemann function}, is a modification of the \Index{Dirichlet} function. 
This real-valued function $f(x)$ is defined as follows:
%
\[ f(x)=\begin{cases} 
	    \frac{1}{q}\mbox{ if }x=\frac{p}{q}\mbox{ is a rational number}\\ 
	    0\mbox{ if }x\mbox{ is irrational} 
	\end{cases}
\]
%
It is assumed here that $\mathop{gcd}(p,q) = 1$ and $q > 0$ so that the function is well-defined 
and nonnegative. The syntax is:

\begin{BDef}
\Lcs{psThomae}\OptArgs\Largr{x0,x1}\Largb{points}
\end{BDef}

\verb+(x0,x1)+ is the plotted interval, both values must be grater zero and $x_1>x_0$. 
The plotted number of points is the third parameter.

\subsection{\nxLcs{psWeierstrass} -- a pathological function}

The Weierstrass function is an example of a pathological real-valued function 
on the real line. The function has the property that it is continuous 
everywhere but differentiable nowhere. 
%
\[
  f_a(x)=\sum\limits_{k=1}^\infty\frac{\sin(\pi k^ax)}{\pi k^a}
\]
%f(p/q)=pi/(4q^2)sum_(k=1)^(q-1)(sin((k^2ppi)/q))/(sin^2((kpi)/(2q)))
%

\begin{BDef}
\Lcs{psWeierstrass}\OptArgs\Largr{$x_0,x_1$}\OptArg*{\Largs{a}}\Largb{a/b}
\end{BDef}

Without the optional argument the mandatory one is $a$, otherwise it is $b$ and
the optional one $a$. Without setting the optional argument \Lkeyword{epsilon} the value
of 1.e-8 will be used.


\begin{LTXexample}[width=6.5cm,wide=false]
\psset{yunit=10,xunit=5}

\subsection{\nxLcs{psplotImp} -- plotting implicit defined functions}
For a given area, the macro calculates in a first step row by row for every pixel (1pt)
the function $f(x,y)$ and checks for  a changing of the value from $f(x,y)<0$ to $f(x,y)>0$
or vice versa. If this happens, then the pixel must be  part of the curve of
the function $f(x,y)=0$. In a second step the same is done column by column.
This may take some time because an area of $400\times 300$ pixel needs 120 thousand calculations
of the function value. The user still defines this area in his own coordinates,
the translation into pixel (pt) is done internally by the macro itself.
The only special keyword is \Lkeyword{stepFactor} which is preset to 0.67 and controls the horizontal
and vertical step width.

\begin{BDef}
\Lcs{psplotImp}\OptArgs\Largr{xMin,yMin}\Largr{xMax,yMax}\OptArg{PS code}\Largb{function f(x,y)}
\end{BDef}

The function must be of $f(x,y)=0$ and described in \PS code, or alternatively with
the option \Lkeyword{algebraic} (\LPack{pstricks-add}) in an algebraic form.
No other value names than $x$ and $y$ are possible. In general, a starred \Lenv{pspicture*} environment
maybe a good choice here.

\medskip

Using the \Lkeyword{polarplot} option implies using the variables $r$ and $phi$ for describing

The data of an implicit plot can be written into an external file for further purposes.
Use the optional argument \Lkeyword[pstricks-add]{saveData} to write the $x|y$ values
into the file \nxLcs{jobname.data}. The file name can be changed with
the keyword \Lkeyword[pstricks-add]{filename}. When running a \TeX\ file from within a GUI
it may be possible that you get a writeaccess error from GhostScript, because it prevents writing
into a file when called from another program. In this case run GhostScript on the \PS-output from
the command line.
