nbprob , mean(value) alpha(value) [ n(integer) graph saving(filename) graph_options]
Description -----------
nbprob generates negative binomial probabilites.
Options -------
mean the mean of the negative binomial distribution.
alpha the overdispersion parameter. Because the algorithm use 1/alpha, alpha cannot be zero. n the number of discrete levels to be included. The default value of n is 10.
graph displays a graph of the probabilities.
saving creates a data file with the probabilities.
Examples --------
. nbprob, mean(2) alpha(.5) . nbprob, mean(2.3) alpha(1.2) n(10) graph
