The Hypergeometric distribution provides a model for acceptance sampling, capture-recapture estimation of animal numbers and sampling for company account auditing. The HPDF function can therefore help you solve probability problems in these areas and many others.

hpdf = myhygepdf(x,N,m,n,Xtype)
hypergeometric probability that X = x in sample n.
Can also return the cumulative hpdf for P(X<=x) and P(X>=x).

In MATLAB please type 'help myhygepdf' for more information.
