## @deftypefn {Function File} {} nbinpdf (@var{x}, @var{n}, @var{p})
## For each element of @var{x}, compute the probability density function (PDF)
## at @var{x} of the negative binomial distribution with parameters
## @var{n} and @var{p}.
##
## When @var{n} is integer this is the Pascal distribution.
## When @var{n} is extended to real numbers this is the Polya distribution.
##
## The number of failures in a Bernoulli experiment with success probability
## @var{p} before the @var{n}-th success follows this distribution.
