When p<0 or p>1, a warning is issued and if the warning is ignored, the result is [[NaN]].  This is the case unless you have [[EnableComplexNumbers|enabled complex numbers]].  If you have set the system variable [[EnableComplexNumbers]] to 1, then no warning is issued and [[Logit]](p) returns a complex number.

Built-in function new to Analytica 4.5. Before that, supplied as a function in the Generalized Regression library.

Logit(p)

The Logit function is equal to

[math]\displaystyle{ Logit(p) = \ln\left( p\over{1-p} \right) }[/math]

where [math]\displaystyle{ 0\lt p\lt 1 }[/math].

The inverse of the Logit function is Sigmoid(x) (before Analytica 4.5, the function InvLogit was used, defined in the 'Generalized Regression library). The logit function is sometimes called the log-odds function.

When p<0 or p>1, a warning is issued and if the warning is ignored, the result is NaN. This is the case unless you have enabled complex numbers. If you have set the system variable EnableComplexNumbers to 1, then no warning is issued and Logit(p) returns a complex number.
