This function computes the theoretical Blomqvist's beta value of a bivariate copula for given parameter values.
BiCopPar2Beta(family, par, par2 = 0, obj = NULL, check.pars = TRUE)Theoretical value of Blomqvist's beta corresponding to the bivariate
copula family and parameter(s) par, par2.

is not implemented (see BiCopCDF()).

parameter.

BiCop object containing the family and parameter
specification.
logical; default is TRUE; if FALSE, checks
for family/parameter-consistency are omitted (should only be used with
care).

If the family and parameter specification is stored in a BiCop()
object obj, the alternative version 
BiCopPar2Beta(obj)can be used.
