composite fifth-order Gauss-Legendre quadrature cdf-GL.py : same as
cdf.c except the code is written in Python cdf.py : Python code to
compute the cdf using rational fraction approximations invcdf.py :
Python code to compute the inverse cdf using rational fraction
approximations. ftp://wueconb.wustl.edu/econ-wp/prog/papers/0212/0212001.zip
