* IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
* --------------------
* Where applicable, use is made of the one-sided Chebyshev inequality
* to bracket the root. This inequality states that
* P(X - mu >= k * sig) <= 1 / (1 + k^2),
* mu: mean, sig: standard deviation. Equivalently
* 1 - P(X < mu + k * sig) <= 1 / (1 + k^2),
* F(mu + k * sig) >= k^2 / (1 + k^2).
*
* For k = sqrt(p / (1 - p)), we find
* F(mu + k * sig) >= p,
* and (mu + k * sig) is an upper-bound for the root.
*
* Then, introducing Y = -X, mean(Y) = -mu, sd(Y) = sig, and
* P(Y >= -mu + k * sig) <= 1 / (1 + k^2),
* P(-X >= -mu + k * sig) <= 1 / (1 + k^2),
* P(X <= mu - k * sig) <= 1 / (1 + k^2),
* F(mu - k * sig) <= 1 / (1 + k^2).
*
* For k = sqrt((1 - p) / p), we find
* F(mu - k * sig) <= p,
* and (mu - k * sig) is a lower-bound for the root.
*
* In cases where the Chebyshev inequality does not apply, geometric
* progressions 1, 2, 4, ... and -1, -2, -4, ... are used to bracket
* the root.
