StatsInvSpearmanCDF

StatsInvSpearmanCDF (cdf, N)

The StatsInvSpearmanCDF function returns the inverse cumulative distribution function for Spearman's ρ, which is used as a critical value in rank correlation tests.

The inverse distribution is computed by finding the value of r for which it attains the cdf value. The result is usually lower than in published tables, which are more conservative when the first derivative of the distribution is discontinuous
