SKEW |
SKEW(number1 [,number2] [..]) |
Returns the number representing the skewness of a distribution based on a sample. |
number1 | The first number. |
number2 | (Optional) The second number. |
REMARKS |
* The Skewness of a [[Probability Distribution]] is a measure of asymmetry about its mean. * Positive skewness indicates a distribution with an asymmetric tail extending toward more positive values. * Negative skewness indicates a distribution with an asymmetric tail extending toward more negative values. * You can also use a single array or a reference to an array instead of arguments separated by commas. * The arguments must be either numbers or names, arrays, or references that contain numbers. * If an array or reference argument contains text, logical values, or empty cells, those values are ignored; however, cells with the value zero are included. * If there are fewer than three data points, or the sample standard deviation is zero, then #DIV/0! is returned. * You can have a maximum of 255 arguments. * You can use the KURT function to return the kurtosis for a probability distribution based on a sample. * You can use the SKEW.P function to return the skewness for a probability distribution based on an entire population. * For the Microsoft documentation refer to support.microsoft.com * For the Google documentation refer to support.google.com |
