ee.Number.erfcInv

  • Computes the inverse complementary error function of a given input number.

  • Returns the result as a number, representing the inverse erfc value.

  • Accepts a single numeric input, ranging from 0 to 1 (or numbers that will be interpreted as such).

  • erfcInv(0) results in Infinity, erfcInv(1) results in 0, and values between 0 and 1 provide the corresponding inverse complementary error function values.

 Computes the inverse complementary error function of the input.

UsageReturns
Number.erfcInv()Number
ArgumentTypeDetails
this: inputNumberThe input value.

Examples

Code Editor (JavaScript)

print('Inverse complementary error function of 0',
      ee.Number(0).erfcInv());  // Infinity

print('Inverse complementary error function of 0.001',
      ee.Number(0.001).erfcInv());  // 2.326753765

print('Inverse complementary error function of 1',
      ee.Number(1).erfcInv());  // 0

Colab (Python)

print('Inverse complementary error function of 0:',
      ee.Number(0).erfcInv().getInfo())  # Infinity

print('Inverse complementary error function of 0.001:',
      ee.Number(0.001).erfcInv().getInfo())  # 2.326753765

print('Inverse complementary error function of 1:',
      ee.Number(1).erfcInv().getInfo())  # 0
