[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #34363] Poor performance for certain statistical distributions

[Rik]

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #34363 (project octave):

I reviewed and made some minor changes to follow Octave coding guidelines. 
Appendix C and D of the documentation have some of the guidelines we use. 
Things I changed

1) Use '##' for comments that standalone on a line
2) Use '#' for comments that are appended to a line of code
3) Use parentheses around the test clause in an if statement
4) Use space between function name and opening parenthesis: 'find (x)' rather
than 'find(x)'

I've uploaded the latest version as poissinv3.m.  I've also uploaded a file I
was using to test the new implementation against the old one.  I found that
they occasionally disagree by an integer (1 or 2) and not just a small number
on the order of eps.  Could you investigate?  I'm pretty sure it's something
small having to do with the cutover between the limit and the analytic
approximation, but I can't check the new implementation in until I'm certain
it is producing correct results.
