## If two inputs are scalar, then @code{betaincinv (@var{y}, @var{a}, @var{b})}
## is returned for each of the other inputs.
##
## If two or more inputs are not scalar, the sizes of them must agree, and
## @code{betaincinv} is applied element-by-element.
##
## The variable @var{y} must be in the interval [0,1], while @var{a} and
## @var{b} must be real and strictly positive.
##
## By default, @var{tail} is @qcode{"lower"} and the inverse of the incomplete
## beta function integrated from 0 to @var{x} is computed.  If @var{tail} is
## @qcode{"upper"} then the complementary function integrated from @var{x} to 1
## is inverted.

  ## Choose starting point for Newton's Method to guarantee convergence.
  ## If (a-1)*(b-1) > 0, F has a point of inflection at x = (a-1)/(a+b-2).
  ## In this case, it is convex on (0,x) and concave on (x,1) if a>1; otherwise
  ## it is the other way round.  If (a-1)*(b-1) <= 0, there is no point of
  ## inflection, and it is everywhere convex for a>1 and concave otherwise.
  ## We thus choose our starting x for the Newton iterations so that we stay
  ## within a region of constant sign of curvature and on the correct side of
  ## the eventual solution, guaranteeing convergence.  Curvatures above are to
