NORMSINV(prob)


  • prob is the probability value.

Description

  • This function gives the inverse of the standard normal cumulative distribution.
  • In normal distribution formula, when the mean is zero and the standard deviation is 1 then it is called Standard normal distribution.
  • If  , then  .
  •   using the iterating method to find the value of x.
  • Suppose the iteration has not converged after 100 searches, then the function gives the error result.
  • In  , where prob is the probability value of the standard normal cumulative distribution.
  • This function will return the result as error when
1.prob is nonnumeric.
2.prob<0 or prob>1.

Examples

  1. NORMSINV(0.9999975333)=4.567600
  2. NORMSINV(0.00241)=-2.818823592
  3. NORMSINV(1)=Null
  4. NORMSINV(0.00001)=-4.264890794

NORMSINV(p)

Where p   is a probability equivalent to the normal distribution.


It calculates  the inverse of the standard normal cumulative distribution.

·          For nonnumeric p ,NORMSINV shows error.

·          When  p<  0 or p> 1, NORMSINV displays  error.

Let’s see an example in (Column1 Row 1)

i.e.= NORMSINV (C1R1)

i.e.= NORMSINV (0.80879) is 0.8734
