Standard Normal Distribution z-value function in C#

Here's some code for the normal distribution written in Python, but it could easily be translated to C# by adding some punctuation. It's just about 15 lines of code.

Here's a C# translation of the normal quantile C code used in the stats program R.

/// <summary>

Some helper methods:

private static bool R_Q_P01_boundaries(double p, double _LEFT_, double _RIGHT_, bool lower_tail, bool log_p, out double ans)
{

  {
    if (p > 0.0)
    {

      return (true);
    }
    if (p == 0.0)
    {
      ans = lower_tail ? _RIGHT_ : _LEFT_;
      return (true);
    }
    if (p == double.NegativeInfinity)
    {
      ans = lower_tail ? _LEFT_ : _RIGHT_;
      return (true);
    }
  }
  else

    {

      return (true);
    }
    if (p == 0.0)
    {
      ans = lower_tail ? _LEFT_ : _RIGHT_;
      return (true);

    }
  }
  ans = double.NaN;
  return (false);
}

private static double R_DT_qIv(double p, bool lower_tail, bool log_p)
{
  return (log_p ? (lower_tail ? Math.Exp(p) : -ExpM1(p)) : R_D_Lval(p, lower_tail));
}

private static double R_DT_CIv(double p, bool lower_tail, bool log_p)
{
  return (log_p ? (lower_tail ? -ExpM1(p) : Math.Exp(p)) : R_D_Cval(p, lower_tail));
}

private static double R_D_Lval(double p, bool lower_tail) 
{
  return lower_tail ? p : 0.5 - p + 0.5; 
} 

private static double R_D_Cval(double p, bool lower_tail) 
{ 
  return lower_tail ? 0.5 - p + 0.5 : p;

In your case, you want mu=0.0, sigma=1.0, lower_tail=true, log_p=false.

Look up implementations of the error function. There was one in all the classic Numerical Recipes in ... books.
