FTEST(Array1,Array2)
- and are array of data.
- FTEST(), returns the result of an F-test.
Description
- This function gives the result of F-test.
- The F-test is designed to test if two population variances are equal.
- It does this by comparing the ratio of two variances.
- So, if the variances are equal, the ratio of the variances will be 1.
- Let X1,...Xn and Y1,...Ym be independent samples each have a Normal Distribution .
- It's sample means:
and
- .
- The sample variances :
and
- Then the Test Statistic = has an F-distribution with 'n−1' and 'm−1' degrees of freedom.
- In FTEST(Array1,Array2) where is the data of first array, is the data of second array.
- The array may be any numbers, names, or references that contains numbers.
- values are not considered if the array contains any text, logical values or empty cells.
When the or is less than 2 or the variance of the array value is zero, then this function will return the result as error.
ZOS
- The syntax is to calculate FTEST in ZOS is .
- and are array of data.
- For e.g.,FTEST([15,29,30],[62,74,80])
