ugeoPDf
Function: Returns the probability in a geometric distribution that the success will occur on a specified trial.
Syntax: geoPDf (x, pos [ ) ]
Example: To determine the geometric probability when x = 6, pos = 0.4

ugeoCDf
Function: Returns the cumulative probability in a geometric distribution that the success will occur on or before a specified trial.
Syntax: geoCDf (x, pos [ ) ]
Example: To determine the geometric probability when x = 3, pos = 0.5
Menu Item: [Action][Distribution][geoCDf]

uinvGeoCDf
Function: Returns the minimum number of trials of a geometric cumulative probability distribution for specified values.
Syntax: invGeoCDf (prob, pos [ ) ]
Important!
When executing the invGeoCDf function the calculator uses the specified prob value and the value that is one less the prob value minimum number of significant digits (*prob value) to calculate minimum number of trials values. The results are assigned to the system variables xInv (calculation result using prob) and *xInv (calculation result using *prob). The invGeoCDf function always returns the xInv value only. However, when the xInv and *xInv values are different, the warning message shown below appears showing both values.
