CHIDIST

CHIDIST(x, degrees_freedom)

Returns the probability distribution function for a chi-squared distribution (right tailed) (no cumulative).

x	The number from the distribution.
degrees_freedom	The number of degrees of freedom.

REMARKS

* This function is only available for backwards compatibility and should not be used.
* CHISQ.DIST.RT was added in Excel 2010 to replace this function.
* The chi-squared distribution is a continuous distribution
* If "x" < 0, then #NUM! is returned.
* If "x" is not numeric, then #VALUE! is returned.
* If "degrees_freedom" is not an integer, it is truncated.
* If "degrees_freedom" < 1, then #NUM! is returned.
* If "degrees_freedom" = 10^10, then #NUM! is returned.
* If "degrees_freedom" is not numeric, then #VALUE! is returned.
* All the values are greater than zero.
* This function uses the following formula P(X>x), where X is a ?2 random variable ???
* You can use the CHISQ.DIST function to return the probability distribution function OR the cumulative probability function for a chi-squared distribution (left tailed).
* You can use the CHISQ.INV function to return the inverse of the probability distribution function for a chi-squared distribution (left tailed).
* You can use the CHISQ.INV.RT function to return the inverse of the probability distribution function for a chi-squared distribution (right tailed) (no cumulative).
* You can use the CHISQ.TEST function to return the probability value from a chi-squared distribution.
