Hmmm,

>              min(VALUE/(Q+1), P + (VALUE-P*(Q+1))/Q).

That first formula should work, where the last bins get an extra value,
but the second formula is not correct. The min function does not give
the desired result there. Anyway, it would be

if VALUE/(Q+1) <= P, then bin number = VALUE/(Q+1)
else bin number = P + (VALUE-P*(Q+1))/Q.

I think.
