ee.Number.erfInv

  • The Number.erfInv() method computes the inverse error function of a given input number.

  • It takes a single argument, which is the number for which to compute the inverse error function.

  • The method returns a Number representing the result of the inverse error function computation.

  • Examples demonstrate calculating the inverse error function for values like -1, -0.001, 0, 0.001, and 1, yielding results such as -Infinity, -0.000886227, 0, 0.000886227, and Infinity respectively.

 Computes the inverse error function of the input.

Examples

Code Editor (JavaScript)

print('Inverse error function of -1',
      ee.Number(-1).erfInv());  // -Infinity

print('Inverse error function of -0.001',
      ee.Number(-0.001).erfInv());  // -0.000886227

print('Inverse error function of 0',
      ee.Number(0).erfInv());  // 0

print('Inverse error function of 0.001',
      ee.Number(0.001).erfInv());  // 0.000886227

print('Inverse error function of 1',
      ee.Number(1).erfInv());  // Infinity

Colab (Python)

print('Inverse error function of -1:',
      ee.Number(-1).erfInv().getInfo())  # -Infinity

print('Inverse error function of -0.001:',
      ee.Number(-0.001).erfInv().getInfo())  # -0.000886227

print('Inverse error function of 0:',
      ee.Number(0).erfInv().getInfo())  # 0

print('Inverse error function of 0.001:',
      ee.Number(0.001).erfInv().getInfo())  # 0.000886227

print('Inverse error function of 1:',
      ee.Number(1).erfInv().getInfo())  # Infinity
