NORMINV(prob,m,sd)
- is the probability corresponding to the normal distribution, is the mean , and is the standard deviation.
is the probability corresponding to the normal distribution,
is the mean , and 
is the standard deviation.Description
- This function gives the inverse of the normal cumulative distribution for the particular mean and standard deviation.
- If , then .
- 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 , where is the corresponding probability of the normal distribution, is the arithmetic mean of the normal distribution and is the standard deviation of the normal distribution.
- This function will return the result as error when
, then 
.
using the iterating method to find the value of x.
, where 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
- NORMINV(0.01884908749,17.4,3.2)=10.750011
- NORMINV(0.998742,5.4,2.3)=12.349244172
- NORMINV(1,7.2,2.3)=NULL
