      2 {{alias}}( p, μ, c )
      3     Evaluates the quantile function for a Lévy distribution with location
      4     parameter `μ` and scale parameter `c` at a probability `p`.
      5 
      6     If `p < 0` or `p > 1`, the function returns `NaN`.
      7 
      8     If provided `NaN` as any argument, the function returns `NaN`.
      9 
     10     If provided `c <= 0`, the function returns `NaN`.
