## Transform Hypergeometric Distribution Parameters to Binomial Probability

### Description

Transform the three parameters of the hypergeometric distribution function to the probability parameter of the corresponding binomial distribution.

### Usage

    hyper2binomP(x, m, n, k)

### Arguments

`x` | ..
`m` | ..
`n` | ..
`k` | ..

### Details

. . .

### Value

a number, the binomial probability.

### See Also

`phyper`, `pbinom`.

`dhyperBinMolenaar()` which is based on `hyper2binomP()`.

### Examples

    hyper2binomP(3,4,5,6) # 0.38856

    ## The function is simply defined as
    function (x, m, n, k)
    {
        N <- m + n
        p <- m/N
        N.n <- N - (k - 1)/2
        (m - x/2)/N.n - k * (x - k * p - 1/2)/(6 * N.n^2)
      }
