<h2>Generalized logit and inverse logit function</h2>


<h3>Description</h3>

<p>
Compute generalized logit and generalized inverse logit functions.
</p>


<h3>Usage</h3>

<pre>
logit(x, min = 0, max = 1)
inv.logit(x, min = 0, max = 1)
</pre>


<h3>Arguments</h3>

<table summary="R argblock">
<tr valign="top"><td><code>x</code></td>
<td>
value(s) to be transformed</td></tr>
<tr valign="top"><td><code>min</code></td>
<td>
Lower end of logit interval</td></tr>
<tr valign="top"><td><code>max</code></td>
<td>
Upper end of logit interval</td></tr>
</table>

<h3>Details</h3>

<p>
The generalized logit function takes values on [min, max] and
transforms them to span [-Inf,Inf] it is defined as:
</p>
<p align="center"><i>y = log(p/(1-p))</i></p>
<p>
where
</p>
<p align="center"><i>p=(x-min)/(max-min)</i></p>
<p>
The generized inverse logit function provides the inverse
transformation:
</p>
<p align="center"><i>x = p * (max-min) + min</i></p>
<p>
where
</p>
<p align="center"><i>exp(y)/(1+exp(y))</i></p>


<h3>Value</h3>

<p>
Transformed value(s).</p>
