InverseLogNormal[ <Mean μ>, <Standard Devation σ>, <Probability p> ]
Computes the inverse of cumulative distribution function of the Log-Normal distribution at 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.
Note: Probability p must be from [0,1].
Examples:
InverseLogNormal[10, 20, 1/3] computes 3.996.
InverseLogNormal[100,2,1] computes \infty .
