Dear all,
I would like to report a possible bug in the functions invcdf() and critical().
gretl (2023b, Linux) slows down and crashes (after a while) when I run the commands
below.
<hansl>
scalar aa = invcdf(X,1,1)
</hansl>
Confirmed on Windows with 2023b (couldn't test with the latest snapshot
right now) - actually I got a freeze and didn't wait for an eventual crash.
This is potentially a bit of a nasty bug, I guess, since it's a standard
statistical calculation. I wonder when this crept in.
thanks
