Description

The Math functions included in this list [1] do not include the inverse function for both the "erf" and "erfc" functions. It would be useful to include "erfcinv" and "erfinv" to the supported list.

Research direction

Start with the linked TICK expression math-function documentation and trace the existing erf and erfc entries to their implementation and tests. Confirm where supported functions are registered, then add coverage and documentation for erfcinv and erfinv; done means both functions are accepted in TICK scripts and appear in the supported list.
