An inverse-gamma continuous random variable.

The probability density function for invgamma in terms of its shape parameter \alpha and scale parameter \beta is:

f(x; \alpha, \beta) = \frac{\beta^\alpha}{\Gamma(\alpha)} x^{-(\alpha+1)} \exp\left(-\frac{\beta}{x}\right)

for x > 0, where \alpha > 0 and \beta > 0. Gamma is the gamma function :

\Gamma(x) = \int_0^{\infty} t^{x-1} e^{-t} \mathrm{d}t
