The algorithms are based on the combination of a fourth-order fixed point method with good non-local convergence properties (the Schwarzian-Newton method), asymptotic inversion methods and sharp bounds in the tails of the distribution function.}, organization = {The authors acknowledge financial support from Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad, project MTM2012-34787.
