NORMINV |
NORMINV(probability, mean, standard_dev) |
Returns the inverse of the probability distribution function for a normal distribution. |
probability | The probability associated with the distribution. |
mean | The arithmetic mean of the distribution. |
standard_dev | The standard deviation of the distribution. |
REMARKS |
* This function is only available for backwards compatibility and should not be used. * NORM.INV was added in Excel 2010 to replace this function. * The normal distribution is a continuous distribution * If "probability" < 0, then #NUM! is returned. * If "probability" > 1, then #NUM! is returned. * If "probability" is not numeric, then #VALUE! is returned. * If "mean" is not numeric, then #VALUE! is returned. * If "standard_dev" = 0, then #NUM! is returned. * If "standard_dev" is not numeric, then #VALUE! is returned. * This function uses an iterative technique for calculating the function. * Given a "probability" value, this function iterates until the result is accurate to within (plus or minust) 3x10^-7. * If this function does not converge after 100 iterations, then #N/A is returned. * You can use the NORM.DIST function to return the probability distribution function OR the cumulative probability function for a standard normal distribution. * You can use the NORM.S.DIST function to return the probability distribution function for a standard normal distribution. * You can use the NORM.S.INV function to return the inverse of the probability distribution function for a standard normal distribution. * For the Microsoft documentation refer to support.microsoft.com * For the Google documentation refer to support.google.com |
