Calling qbinom with a sample probability of 1 returns NaN
> qbinom(p=0.95,size=10,prob=1)
[1] NaN
I believe that this is wrong and that qbinom(p,size,prob=1) should always be
size for 0<p<=1.
The documentation says that
The quantile is defined as the smallest value x such that F(x) >=
p, where F is the distribution function.
