Beta function:

Cumulative distribution function (CDF) for the F-distribution:

Variable definitions:
d₁ and d₂ = the degrees of freedom
I = regularized lower incomplete beta function

Lower incomplete beta function:

Regularized lower incomplete beta function:

Variable definitions:
the numerator = lower incomplete beta function
the denominator = beta function
