EXCEL HYPGEOM.DIST FUNCTION
Excel HYPGEOM.DIST Function Introduction
The Excel Hypgeom.Dist function returns the equation distribution value over a certain number of successes in a population sample.
Description of Excel HYPGEOM.DIST Function
Syntax :
=HYPGEOM.DIST( sample_s, number_sample, population_s, number_pop, cumulative )
Parameters :
The following parameters are:
- Sample s – The sample’s number of successes.
- Number sample – The sample size.
population s – The population’s number of successes.
- Number pop – The population size.
- Cumulative – A logical argument indicating the kind of distribution to be computed. This can be TRUE or FALSE, indicating:
- TRUE – Determine the cumulative distribution function.
- FALSE – Determine the probability density function
Step By Step Guide of HYPGEOM.DIST Function
Example :
Assume you have a bag containing three red balls and six blue balls. The hypergeometric distribution may be used to compute the chance that 0, 1, 2, or 3 of the balls in the bag are red.
Key Points
- #NUM! – Occurs if either: The given sample s is 0 or greater than number sample; the supplied sample s is greater than population s; the supplied sample s is greater than (number sample – number pop + population s); The supplied population s 0 or > number pop; The supplied population s 0 or > number pop; The supplied population s 0 or > number pop; The supplied number pop 0.
- #VALUE! – This error occurs if any of the provided parameters is not a number.
