Matlab's binoinv equivalent in Python

Question

Is there a Python equivalent of the binoinv Matlab function? I am new to data analysis and don't have much experience in this domain. It would really be very helpful if someone can help me out.

Answer 1

You have that functionality in scipy.stats.binom:

• Matlab:

  >> x = binoinv([.3 .7 .9], 100, .25)
  ans =
      23    27    31
  

• Python:

  >>> from scipy.stats import binom
  >>> x = binom.ppf([.3, .7, .9], 100, .25)
  >>> print(x)
  [ 23.  27.  31.]
