computes the quantile function of the standard normal distribution, truncated to the interval [l,u].
Method designed for precision in the tails. Inf values for vectors 'l' and 'u' accepted;
%Example: Suppose you desire the median of Z~N(0,1), truncated to Z>9;
norminvp(0.5,9,Inf) %our method
% in contrast, Matlab's default norminv.m fails
pl=normcdf(9); norminv(0.5*(1-pl)+pl)

2.0.0.0

- updated the Newton method in "newton(p,l,u)" so that now the exit condition uses
relative error; previous version used absolute error criterion.

1.1.0.0

Vectorized the last update of the function.
If abs(x)>10^6, then there is no need for Newton iteration and the code now bypassed the
iteration;
Faster convergence of Newton's method using
the better initial guess of the root of nonlinear equation:
x=sqrt(l-2*reallog(1+p.*expm1(l/2-u/2)));
Corrected spelling mistake in title
Forgot to suppress output by adding a semicolon.
