Correct. I withdrew this routine in a purge of
several packages of mine on SSC that I could no
longer justify.
In this case the reason is that a single -generate-
command in terms of calls to -comb()-
can be used to produce hypergeometric
probabilities. A dedicated function is
thus hardly required. You just need to go one
level down, as it were.
The cumulative is also a matter of -sum()-.
