maxframe.tensor.special.erfcinv(x, out=None, where=None, **kwargs)

Inverse of the complementary error function.

Computes the inverse of the complementary error function.

In the complex domain, there is no unique complex number w satisfying erfc(w)=z. This indicates a true inverse function would be multivalued. When the domain restricts to the real, 0 < x < 2, there is a unique real number satisfying erfc(erfcinv(x)) = erfcinv(erfc(x)).

It is related to inverse of the error function by erfcinv(1-x) = erfinv(x)

Parameters:

• y (ndarray) – Argument at which to evaluate. Domain: [0, 2]

• out (ndarray, optional) – Optional output array for the function values

Returns:

erfcinv – The inverse of erfc of y, element-wise

Return type:

scalar or ndarray
