-
- These functions provide information about the t distri-
- bution with df degrees of freedom. dt gives the den-
- sity, pt gives the distribution function qt gives the
- quantile function and rt generates random deviates.
-
- The t distribution with n degrees of freedom has den-
- sity
-
- f(x) = Gamma((n+1)/2) / (sqrt(n pi) Gamma(n/2))
- (1 + x^2/n)^-((n+1)/2)
-
- for all real x.
