BETAINV |
BETAINV(probability, alpha, beta [,A] [,B]) |
Returns the inverse of the probability distribution function for a beta distribution. |
probability | The probability associated with the distribution. |
alpha | The parameter to the distribution. |
beta | The parameter to the distribution. |
A | (Optional) The lower bound to the interval of x. |
B | (Optional) The upper bound to the interval of x. |
REMARKS |
* This function is only available for backwards compatibility and should not be used. * BETA.INV was added in Excel 2010 to replace this function. * The beta distribution is a [[continuous distribution]] * If "probability" = 0, then #NUM! is returned. * If "probability" > 1, then #NUM! is returned. * If "alpha" = 0, then #NUM! is returned. * If "beta" = 0, then #NUM! is returned. * If "A" and "B" are left blank, then the standard cumulative beta distribution is used with A = 0 and B = 1. * If "A" is left blank, then 0 is used. * If "B" is left blank, then 1 is used. * This function uses an iterative technique for calculating the function. Given a probability value, the function iterates until the result is accurate to within ±3x10-7. * If any of the arguments are not numeric, then #VALUE! is returned. * If the function does not converge after 100 iterations, then #N/A is returned. * You can use the BETA.DIST to return the probability distribution function OR the cumulative distribution function for a beta distribution. * For the Microsoft documentation refer to support.microsoft.com |
