NORMINV(prob,m,sd)


  • is the probability corresponding to the normal distribution,Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle m} is the mean , and Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle sd} is the standard deviation.

Description

  • This function gives the inverse of the normal cumulative distribution for the particular mean and standard deviation.
  • If Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle NORMDIST(x,m,sd,TRUE)=prob} , then Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle NORMINV(prob,m,sd)=x} .
  • Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle NORMINV} using the iterating method to find the value of x.
  • Suppose the iteration has not converged after 100 searches, then the function gives the error result.
  • In Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle NORMINV(prob,m,sd)} , where Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle prob} is the corresponding probability of the normal distribution, is the arithmetic mean of the normal distribution and Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle sd} is the standard deviation of the normal distribution.
  • This function will return the result as error when
1. any one of the argument is nonnumeric
2.Suppose prob<0 or prob>1
3.sd<=0.
  • If m=0 and sd=1,NORMINV uses the standard normal distribution.

Examples

  1. NORMINV(0.01884908749,17.4,3.2)=10.750011
  2. NORMINV(0.998742,5.4,2.3)=12.349244172
  3. NORMINV(1,7.2,2.3)=NULL
