/**
* Evaluates the probability density function (PDF) for a Weibull distribution with shape parameter `k` and scale parameter `lambda` at a value `x`.
*
* @param {number} x - input value
* @param {PositiveNumber} k - shape parameter
* @param {PositiveNumber} lambda - scale parameter
* @returns {number} evaluated probability density function
*
* @example
* var y = pdf( 2.0, 1.0, 0.5 );
* // returns ~0.037
*
* @example
* var y = pdf( 0.1, 1.0, 1.0 );
* // returns ~0.905
*
* @example
* var y = pdf( -1.0, 4.0, 2.0 );
* // returns 0.0
*
* @example
* var y = pdf( NaN, 0.6, 1.0 );
* // returns NaN
*
* @example
* var y = pdf( 0.0, NaN, 1.0 );
* // returns NaN
*
* @example
* var y = pdf( 0.0, 0.0, NaN );
* // returns NaN

* @example
* var y = pdf( 2.0, 0.0, -1.0 );
