TINV

TINV inverse of the survival function of the Student t-distribution

Synopsis

TINV(p,dof)

Arguments

p: probability

dof: number of degrees of freedom

Description

The survival function is 1 minus the cumulative distribution function.

Note

If p < 0 or p > 1 or dof < 1 this function returns a #NUM! error. The parameterization of this function is different from what is used for, e.g., NORMSINV. This is a common source of mistakes, but necessary for compatibility.

Microsoft Excel Compatibility

This function is Excel compatible.
