EXCEL BINOM.DIST.RANGE FUNCTION

The Excel Binom.Dist.Range function delivers the Binomial Distribution probability for the number of successes from a certain number of trials that fall inside a given range.

Syntax:

=BINOM.DIST.RANGE( trialsprobability_snumber_s[number_s2] )

Parameter:

  • The following arguments are mentioned in the table:

Trials: Probability_s:

  • The number of independent trials that will be conducted.

Number_s:

  • The likelihood of success in a single trial (must be between 0 and 1).
    The bare minimum of successes for which you wish to compute the probability (must be trials).

[number_s2]:

An optional parameter that specifies the maximum number of successes for which the probability should be calculated.
If given, [number s2] must be a combination of number s and trials.
If the [number s2] parameter is not provided, the function computes the probability of precisely number s successes.

Example:

The graphic on the right employs the Binomial Distribution Probability Mass Function to calculate the likelihood that x heads will be tossed out of 100 coin flips.

  • #NUM! – Occurs if any of the following conditions are met: the supplied probability s is 0 or > 1; the supplied number s is 0 or > trials; the supplied [number s2] is 0 or > trials or number s;
  • #VALUE! – This error occurs if any of the supplied parameters is not a number.
