InverseLogNormal( <Mean>, <Standard Deviation>, <Probability> )
Computes the inverse of cumulative distribution function of the log-normal distribution at probability p, where the log-normal distribution is given by mean μ and standard devation σ.
In other words, it finds t such that P(X ≤ t) = p, where X is a log-normal random variable.
Probability p must be from [0, 1].
Examples:
  • InverseLogNormal(10, 20, 1/3) computes 3.997.
  • InverseLogNormal(1000, 2, 1) computes \infty .
