There seems to be a bug here due to the fact that ContinuousDistributions.m
(4.0.0) does not check that q is numeric.
Quantile[NoncentralChiSquareDistribution[2, 10], q]
Produces a load of errors and some incorrect results when used in LogPlot.
LogPlot[Quantile[NoncentralChiSquareDistribution[2, 10], q], {q, .1, .9}]
This is of course a pain. What is the best way to correct this? Is it to
copy the particular function from ContinuousDistribution.m and re-include it
in a little add on or is there an updated version.
TIA
