It appears that MATLAB Stats toolbox has t location-scale
density. What is its handle for our using? Has anyone
tried using this library for their simulation of the
distribution? Does MATLAB also have an inverse t
location-scale function?

Thank you!!

OR, the Distribution Fitting Tool (DFITTOOL) supports the t location scale
distribution for fitting to data.

What specifically are you trying to do? If by simulation you mean generate
random values, that's simply a matter of using TRND with a multiply and add.
The inverse t that I know about would simply require that you take the
reciprocal of those values.

Hope this helps.
