> The Erf class provides only direct functions erf(double) and erfc(double).
> The inverse of these functions are useful to compute accurately and efficiently the inverse cumulative probabilities of normal distribution and Lévy distribution.
> A recent implementation as been designed by Mike Giles and published in a 2010 paper in CUDA Gems: Approximating the erfinv function. The paper is available at [http://people.maths.ox.ac.uk/gilesm/files/gems_erfinv.pdf]. The code implementing the double precision version with all the coefficients is available here: [http://gpucomputing.net/?q=node/1828].
> After a direct contact with professor Giles, he gave his authorization to the Apache Commons project to use this code in the library.
