  • and are set of values.
  • is the Hypothesized Mean Difference.
  • is the significance level.
  • is the logical value.


Description

  • This function calculating the two Sample for unequal variances determines whether two sample means also distinct.
  • We can use this test when both:
  • 1.the two sample sizes are may are may not be equal;
  • 2. The means and variances are distinct .
  • In   and   are two arrays of sample values.
  •   is the Hypothesized Mean Difference .Suppose md=0 which indicates that sample means are hypothesized to be equal.
  •   is the significance level which ranges from 0 to 1.
  •   is the logical value like TRUE or FALSE.
  • TRUE is indicating the result will display in new worksheet.Suppose we are omitted the lv value it will consider the value as FALSE.
  • The t statistic of this function calculated by:

t=x1(bar)-x2(bar)/sx1(bar)-x2(bar) where sx1(bar)-x2(bar)= sqart[s1^2/n1+s2^2/n2]

  • Here s1^2 and s2^2 are unbiased estimators of the variances of two samples.n1 and n2 are the number of data points in two arrays . sx1(bar)-x2(bar) is not a pooled variance.
  • This function will give the result as error when
     1. any one of th argument is nonnumeric.
