BETADIST(x,alpha,beta,a,b)
- x is the value between a and b,
- alpha and beta are the value of the shape parameter
- a & b the lower and upper limit to the interval of x.
Description
- This function gives the Cumulative Beta Probability Density function.
- The beta distribution is a family of Continuous Probability Distributions defined on the interval [0, 1] parameterized by two positive shape parameters, denoted by and .
- The Beta Distribution is also known as the Beta Distribution of the first kind.
- In BETADIST(x,,Failed to parse (unknown function "\betab"): {\displaystyle \betab} ,a,b) is the value between and .
- alpha is the value of the shape parameter.
- beta is the value of the shape parameter
- and (optional) are the Lower and Upper limit to the interval of .
- Normally lies between the limit and , suppose when we are omitting and value, by default value with in 0 and 1.
- The Probability Density Function of the beta distribution is:
where ; and is the Beta function.
- The formula for the Cumulative Beta Distribution is called the Incomplete Beta function ratio and it is denoted by and is defined as :
