Regularized Beta Function

The regularized beta function is defined by

[画像: I(z;a,b)=(B(z;a,b))/(B(a,b)), ]

where B(z;a,b) is the incomplete beta function and B(a,b) is the (complete) beta function. The regularized beta function is sometimes also denoted I_z(a,b) and is implemented in the Wolfram Language as BetaRegularized [z, a, b]. The four-argument version BetaRegularized [z1, z2, a, b] is equivalent to I(z_2;a,b)-I(z_1;a,b).
