        x,q: vector of quantiles.

        These functions provide information about the Beta dis-
        tribution with parameters `a' and `b'.  `dbeta' gives
        the density, `pbeta' the distribution function, `qbeta'
        the quantile function and `rbeta' generates random
        deviates.

        The Beta distribution has density

            Gamma(a+b)/(Gamma(a)Gamma(b))x^(a-1)(1-x)^(b-1)

        for a > 0, b > 0 and 0 < x < 1.

   SSeeee AAllssoo::

        `beta' for the beta function, and `dgamma' for the
        Gamma distribution.
