CRITBINOM(trials,probabilitys,alpha,accuracy)


  • is the number of independent trials.
  • is the probability of success in one trial.
  • is the criterion value.
  • gives accurate value of the solution.
    • CRITBINOM(), returns the smallest value for which the cumulative binomial distribution is less than or equal to a criterion value.

Description

  • The smallest value in Cumulative Binomial Distribution probability result is the Critbinom.
  • This function is the inverse of the Cumulative Binomial Distribution.
  • For example, the Critbinom function could be used to find the smallest number of through the dice for which there is a 40% chance of at least 10 six's.
  • In CRITBINOM(trials,probabilitys,alpha,accuracy), is the number of independent trials that are to be done (if value is in decimal then it is converted to an integer).
  • is the probability of success in one trial and is the criterion value of the Cumulative Binomial Distribution (must be between 0 and 1).
  • gives accurate value of the solution.
  • This function gives the result as error when
1.Any one of the argument is non-numeric.
2.,or  or 
3. or .

ZOS

  • The syntax is to calculate CRITBINOM in ZOS is .
    • is the number of independent trials.
    • is the probability of success in one trial.
    • is the criterion value.
    • gives accurate value of the solution.
  • For e.g.,CRITBINOM(5..8,0.5,0.4,0.02)
CRITBINOM

Examples

  1. CRITBINOM(5,0.6,0.4) = 3
  2. CRITBINOM(8,0.1,0.25) = 1
  3. CRITBINOM(20,0.75,0.65) = 16
  4. CRITBINOM(20,1,1.5) = #N/A (ALPHA IN BETWEEN 0 AND 1 REQUIRED)
  5. CRITBINOM(9.5,0.4,0.35) = 3
  6. CRITBINOM(12,-0.25,0.3) = #N/A (PROBABILITY IN BETWEEN 0 AND 1 REQUIRED)
