Syntax

CRITBINOM(
trials
,
probability_s
,
alpha
)
  • trials
    : The number of trials. If you enter a non-integer, it is truncated.
  • probability_s
    : The number between 0 and 1 for the probability of success in one trial.
  • alpha
    : The number between 0 and 1 for the criterion.

Example

Notes

  • This function does the same action as BINOM.INV() and BINOMINV().
  • If any argument is nonnumeric, CRITBINOM() returns #VALUE! (invalid type).
  • If
    trials
    is not an integer, it is truncated.
  • If
    trials
    is less than zero, CRITBINOM() returns #NUM! (invalid number).
  • If
    probability_s
    is less than zero or greater than 1, CRITBINOM() returns #NUM! (invalid number).
  • If
    alpha
    is less than zero or greater than 1, CRITBINOM() returns #NUM! (invalid number).
