The [logit][logit] function is defined as the logarithm of the odds `p / (1-p)`; i.e.,

The [logit][logit] function is the inverse of the [standard logistic][standard-logistic] function, sometimes also called the sigmoid function.

|
## Usage
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
var logit = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/logit' );
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### logit( p )
|
||
|
|
||
|
Computes the [logit][logit] function.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
var v = logit( 0.2 );
|
||
|
// returns ~-1.386
|
||
|
|
||
|
v = logit( 0.9 );
|
||
|
// returns ~2.197
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
If `p < 0` or `p > 1`, the function returns `NaN`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
var v = logit( 1.3 );
|
||
|
// returns NaN
|
||
|
|
||
|
v = logit( -0.2 );
|
||
|
// returns NaN
|
||
|
```
