  • 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   value it will consider the value as FALSE.
  • The t-statistic of this function calculated by:

  where  

  • Here   and   are unbiased estimators of the variances of two samples.   and   are the number of data points in two arrays.   is not a pooled variance.
  • This function will give the result as error when
     1. any one of the argument is non-numeric.
     2.alpha>1
