CHITEST (ActualRange,ExpectedRange)

$ActualRange$ is the array of observed values.
is the array of expected values.
- CHITEST(), returns the test for independence.

Description

It is a test for independence.
This function gives the value from the chi-squared distribution and the appropriate degrees of freedom i.e it calculates $\chi ^{2}$ statistic and degrees of freedom, then calls CHIDIST.

The conditions of $\chi ^{2}$ test is

The table should be 2x2 or more than 2x2
Each observations should not be dependent
All expected values should be 10 or greater. 
Each cell has an expected frequency of at least five.

The $\chi ^{2}$ test first calculates a $\chi ^{2}$ statistic using the formula:

$\chi ^{2}=\sum _{i=1}^{columns}\sum _{j=1}^{rows}{\frac {(observed_{ij}-expected_{ij})^{2}}{grandtotal}}$

$observed_{ij}$ is the array of the observed values in a given set of values

 then this function will give the error result

The obtained result is entered in the Chi square distribution table with the obtained degrees of freedom.
This returns the test for independence (probability).

Chi-Squared Test

Examples

A student investigated the chance of getting viral fever in a school for a period that took vitamin tablets every day. The total number of students 880. In that 639 students didn't get viral fever and 241 students got fever .But the expected ratio is 1:3
Answer

If the ratio is 1:3 and the total number of observed individuals is 880, then the expected numerical values should be: 660 will not get fever and 220 students will get fever.

Observed Values	639	241
Expected Values	660	220
