CHIDIST(x,df)
- 'x' is the value for which distribution is evaluated.
- 'df' is the number of degrees of freedom.
Description
- This function gives the one_tailed probability of the chi-squared distribution.
- It is denoted by distribution.Normally categorical data's may displayed in tables.
- The static used to compare the observed value in each table to the value
- which would be the expected under the assumption. The conditions of X^2 test is
distribution.Normally categorical data's may displayed in tables.1.The table should be 2x2 or more than 2x2 2.Each observations should not be dependent 3.All expected values should be 10 or greater. The test statistic is: The degrees of freedom are: (r–1)(c–1) r =No. of rows and c = No. of columns Where: Oi-the observed value in the ith cell Ei- the expected value in the ith cell Also this function will the result as Error when 1.The x&df values are non-numeric 2.The x value is negative or df value is not an integer 3. The df <1or df>10^10 4.Here CHIDIST=P(X>x),where X is a random variable.
The degrees of freedom are: (r–1)(c–1)
r =No. of rows and c = No. of columns
Where:
Oi-the observed value in the ith cell
Ei- the expected value in the ith cell
Also this function will the result as Error when
1.The x&df values are non-numeric
2.The x value is negative or df value is not an integer
3. The df <1or df>10^10
4.Here CHIDIST=P(X>x),where X is a - CHIDIST(-2,1)=Error,because x is negative.
- CHIDIST(2,-1)=Error, because df<1
