📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe beta-function implementation was replaced with checked and unchecked APIs, stable forward and inverse evaluation paths, asymptotic and high-precision arithmetic, shape-two endpoint certification, distribution integration, licensing updates, benchmarks, and extensive regression tests. ChangesBeta function implementation
Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to This PR substantially changes beta CDF and quantile computation, but the current implementation still has correctness defects for extreme valid shapes and boundary inputs that can return inaccurate results or certify an insufficiently converged result. These issues should be fixed before merging. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

target-independent cases, and use the existing ULP tolerance instead of exact
bit equality where that guarantee does not apply.

Rename subnormal_shape_two or use a true subnormal input.
The bit pattern 0x1e72_f942_2c23_c47c has a non-zero, non-maximal exponent field, so it represents a normal finite f64, not a subnormal value. The current name misstates the benchmark coverage. Rename it to tiny_normal_shape_two, or replace the value with a true subnormal if subnormal shape-two behavior is intended.

Cargo manifest reference include README.md always included explicit include list
💡 Result:
In Cargo, the README.md file is not automatically included in the package manifest's explicit include list, but its inclusion is handled through specific mechanisms [1][2]. To ensure a README file is included when publishing a crate, you should specify the path to it using the readme field in the [package] section of your Cargo.toml [1][3]: [package] #... readme = "README.md" When this field is set, Cargo automatically includes the specified file in the package, regardless of whether it is listed in the include field [1][4]. If you do not explicitly use the include field, Cargo defaults to including all files in the package root (excluding those ignored by version control) [1][3]. If you choose to use the include field to explicitly define which files are bundled with your crate, it acts as an allowlist [1][3]. If include is present, you must ensure that your README file (along with other necessary files like your source code) is explicitly included in that list [1][2]. For example: [package] include = ["/src", "README.md", "Cargo.toml"] You can always verify exactly which files will be included in your package by running the following command in your terminal [1][5]: cargo package --list This command provides an authoritative list of the files that will be bundled, allowing you to confirm that your README.md is present [1][6].

site:doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/manifest.html Cargo include readme field automatically included when include specified
💡 Result:
No, the README file is not automatically included when the include field is specified in your Cargo.toml [1]. When you define an include field, you are explicitly specifying the set of files to be included in your package [1]. Unlike the default behavior where Cargo automatically discovers and includes files, specifying include overrides this and means that only the files or patterns you list will be part of the package [1]. While Cargo does have a list of files that are always included regardless of the include field (such as Cargo.toml, a minimized Cargo.lock, and any file specified by license-file), the README file is not on this list [1]. Therefore, if you use the include field, you must explicitly add your README file (e.g., "README.md") to the list of included patterns to ensure it is packaged [1].

Rust standard library f64 ln exp exp_m1 platform-dependent precision documentation
💡 Result:
In the Rust standard library, mathematical functions such as f64::ln, f64::exp, and f64::exp_m1 are documented as having "unspecified precision" [1][2][3]. The official documentation explicitly states that the precision of these functions is non-deterministic, meaning it can vary based on the platform, the Rust version, and even within the same execution across different invocations [1][3][4]. These functions are typically implemented by calling into the underlying platform's math library (e.g., libc's math functions or equivalent system-provided libraries) [5][6]. Because these system libraries vary across different operating systems and architectures, the exact results of floating-point operations can differ between platforms [5]. Key points regarding this behavior include: Non-deterministic Precision: The standard library documentation warns that because the implementation often relies on external, platform-specific libraries, it does not guarantee a specific level of precision or bit-for-bit identical results across different systems [1][3][4]. Implementation Source: The Rust standard library typically links against the system's C math library (libm) to provide these transcendental functions [3][5][6]. Consequently, observed discrepancies in output (e.g., between Linux and macOS) are often attributable to differences in the underlying libc math implementation [5]. Consistency Requirements: If a project requires strictly deterministic or reproducible floating-point results across different platforms, developers are often advised to use a portable, pure-Rust implementation of these functions, such as the libm crate, which provides consistent results regardless of the host operating system [5]. While the "unspecified precision" note in the documentation highlights that results are not strictly guaranteed to be identical across environments, once a program is compiled and run on identical hardware with the same environment, the operations themselves are generally deterministic [7]. Differences arise primarily when moving between different platforms or build environments where the underlying math library or optimization strategies may change [7][5].

Document the convergence failure for beta_inc and checked_beta_inc.
checked_beta_inc calls checked_beta_reg, which can return BetaFuncError::ConvergenceFailed. So beta_inc can panic when the numerical method does not converge, and checked_beta_inc can return that error. The current docs list only the domain conditions. beta_reg at Line 59 already documents the convergence case.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Reject probability == 0.0 in the guard.
(0.0..1.0).contains(&0.0) is true, so the guard admits probability == 0.0. normalized_probability(0.0) then returns a mantissa of 1.0 with exponent -1077, because bits == 0 is not treated as a special case. For small scaled_x, scale_probability scales that mantissa up to a large positive value, so midpoint_difference reports a positive difference and this function certifies Ordering::Greater. The correct ordering for a zero probability is Ordering::Less.
endpoint_certified::midpoint_certificate already uses the strict form. Align both guards.

The shape-two logarithmic CDF is evaluated at x == 0.0, where it is undefined. log_cdf_parts returns NaN through accurate_ln_dd((0.0, 0.0)) in the series path and a finite wrong value through shape_two_ln in the b == 2.0 path. The adjacent-value selector then compares NaN or bogus errors, so rounding between 0.0 and the smallest subnormal is arbitrary.

Summary
Root cause
The forward path formed ill-conditioned gamma and power differences in
f64; cancellation eventually drove a valid CDF outside[0, 1]. The inverse path clamped its initial estimate away from zero and iterated on an underflowing value-domain CDF, causing the fixed~1e-17floor, non-monotonic results, non-termination, and an unchecked error panic.The replacement uses DLMF 8.17, DLMF 8.18.9–12, TOMS Algorithm 708, and Temme, Special Functions (1996), section 11.3.3.2. Boost-derived kernels are attributed and distributed under BSL-1.0 in
THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md.TDD and independent numerical references
The issue reproducers fail on upstream and pass with this change. Inputs are passed to every reference as their exact binary64 values. The columns below are signed ULP error against 500-digit MPFR/Boost.Multiprecision references; the endpoint uses the exact

A separate 1763-case endpoint audit around rounding thresholds found no error above 1 ULP; a theoretically unresolved adjacent-float overlap selects the monotone ties-to-even result without panicking.
Performance
[0,1]bendpointp=1e-60target-cpu=native-O3 -march=native00Timings are scalar-call latency; a faster time does not imply a correct result—the accuracy table applies. mpmath is an accuracy oracle rather than a production-speed competitor. Batched SciPy/R throughput is measured separately and is not presented as scalar latency.
