/**
* Evaluates the cumulative distribution function (CDF) for a Lévy distribution with location parameter `mu` and scale parameter `c` at value `x`.
*
* @param {number} x - input value
* @param {number} mu - location parameter
* @param {PositiveNumber} c - scale parameter
* @returns {Probability} evaluated CDF
*
* @example
* var y = cdf( 2.0, 0.0, 1.0 );
* // returns ~0.48
*
* @example
* var y = cdf( 12.0, 10.0, 3.0 );
* // returns ~0.221
*
* @example
* var y = cdf( 9.0, 10.0, 3.0 );
* // returns 0.0
*
* @example
* var y = cdf( NaN, 0.0, 1.0 );
* // returns NaN
*
* @example
* var y = cdf( 2, NaN, 1.0 );
* // returns NaN
*
* @example
* var y = cdf( 2.0, 0.0, NaN );
* // returns NaN
*
* @example
* // Negative scale parameter:
* var y = cdf( 2.0, 0.0, -1.0 );
* // returns NaN
