All Implemented Interfaces:

Distribution
```
public class InverseGaussianDist
extends ContinuousDistribution
```
Extends the class ContinuousDistribution for the inverse Gaussian distribution with location parameter μ > 0 and scale parameter λ > 0. Its density is

f (x) = (λ/ (2πx^3))^1/2e^{-λ(x-μ)²/(2μ²x)}, for x > 0.
The distribution function is given by

F(x) = Φ((λ/x)^1/2(x/μ -1)) + e^2λ/μΦ(- (λ/x)^1/2(x/μ + 1)),
where Φ is the standard normal distribution function.
The non-static versions of the methods cdf, barF, and inverseF call the static version of the same name.
