[jira] [Updated] (STATISTICS-32) Add survival probability function to discrete distributions

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STATISTICS-32?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Alex Herbert updated STATISTICS-32:
-----------------------------------
    Description: 
Sibling issue to: STATISTICS-31

It is useful to know the [survival function|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Survival_function] of a number given a discrete distribution.

While this can be approximated with
{noformat}
1 - cdf(x){noformat}
, there is an opportunity for greater accuracy in certain distributions.
