+## @deftypefn {Function File} {@var{p} =} raylcdf (@var{x}, @var{sigma})
+## Compute the cumulative distribution function of the Rayleigh
+## distribution.
+##
+## @subheading Arguments
+##
+## @itemize @bullet
+## @item
+## @var{x} is the support. The elements of @var{x} must be non-negative.
+##
+## @item
+## @var{sigma} is the parameter of the Rayleigh distribution. The elements
+## of @var{sigma} must be positive.
+## @end itemize
+## @var{x} and @var{sigma} must be of common size or one of them must be
+## scalar.
+##
+## @subheading Return values
+##
+## @itemize @bullet
+## @item
+## @var{p} is the cumulative distribution of the Rayleigh distribution at
+## each element of @var{x} and corresponding parameter @var{sigma}.
+## @end itemize
+##
+## @subheading Examples
+##
+## @example
+## @group
+## x = 0:0.5:2.5;
+## sigma = 1:6;
+## p = raylcdf (x, sigma)
+## @end group
+##
+## @group
+## p = raylcdf (x, 0.5)
