Returns the probability of drawing a specific number of successes or range of successes given a probability and number of tries.
Parts of a BINOM.DIST.RANGE function
BINOM.DIST.RANGE(num_trials, prob_success, num_successes, max_num_successes)
Part | Description |
num_trials | The number of independent trials. Must be greater than or equal to 0. |
prob_success | The probability of success in any given trial. Must be between 0 and 1, both exclusive. |
num_successes | The number of successes for which to calculate the probability in `num_trials` trials. Must be between 0 and num_trials, both exclusive. |
max_num_successes | Optional: The maximum number of successes for which to calculate the probability in `num_trials` trials. If omitted, then we compute the probability of just `num_successes`. Must be between num_successes and num_trials, both exclusive. |
Notes
- If any arguments does not meet its constraints, this function returns a #NUM! error value.
- If any argument is non-numeric, this functions returns a #VALUE! error value.
- Except for prob_success, this function truncates any numerical argument to an integer.
