accuracy of chi-square distribution approximations
Hi there, How accurate is the aproximation R makes to the Chi-Square distribution? For example, if I run: > qchisq(1/1000000,6) [1] 0.03650857 how accurate is 0.0365 compared to the theoretical percentile? What kind of approximations have been made in the software's algorithm? It woudl be useful to know since I am working with tiny percentiles such as one one-millionth and one
