/**
* Evaluates the cumulative distribution function (CDF) for an Erlang distribution with shape parameter `k` and rate parameter `lambda` at a value `x`.
*
* @param {number} x - input value
* @param {NonNegativeInteger} k - shape parameter
* @param {PositiveNumber} lambda - rate parameter
* @returns {Probability} evaluated CDF
*
* @example
* var y = cdf( 2.0, 1, 1.0 );
* // returns ~0.865
*
* @example
* var y = cdf( 2.0, 3, 1.0 );
* // returns ~0.323
*
* @example
* var y = cdf( 2.0, 2.5, 1.0 );
* // returns NaN
*
* @example
* var y = cdf( -1.0, 2, 2.0 );
* // returns 0.0
*
* @example
* var y = cdf( +Infinity, 4, 2.0 );
* // returns 1.0
*
* @example
* var y = cdf( -Infinity, 4, 2.0 );
* // returns 0.0
*
* @example
* var y = cdf( NaN, 0, 1.0 );
* // returns NaN
*
* @example
* var y = cdf( 0.0, NaN, 1.0 );
* // returns NaN
*
* @example
* var y = cdf( 0.0, 0, NaN );
* // returns NaN
*
* @example
* var y = cdf( 2.0, -1, 1.0 );
* // returns NaN

* @example
