Excel Binom Dist Function

Binary data occurs when an observation can be placed into only two categories. For example, when tossing a coin, the result can only be heads or tails. Or, when rolling a die, the result can either be 6 or not 6. Example In the example shown, the BINOM.DIST function is used to calculate the probability of rolling a 6 with a die. Since a die has six sides, the probability of rolling a 6 is 1/6, or 0....

Excel Cosh Function

A hyperbolic angle is defined as a ray from the origin of the coordinate system that passes through a point on the hyperbola. The area formed by the hyperbolic angle is equal to one-half the hyperbolic angle. Area above the x-axis is considered positive and area below the x-axis is negative. Shown below are some hyperbolic angles on the unit hyperbola and their corresponding points. As the angle approaches positive infinity, the angle converges to the diagonal asymptote in the first quadrant of the coordinate system....

Excel Formula Error Codes

There are 8 error codes that you’re likely to run into at some point as you work with Excel’s formulas. First, we have the divide by zero error. You’ll see this when a formula tries to divide a number by zero, as in this first example. Note that you’ll see the same error when a formula tries to divide a number by a cell that is empty. You also may see the divide by zero error with the AVERAGEIF or AVERAGEIFS functions, when the criteria does not match any cells in the range....

Extract Common Values From Two Lists Excel Formula

where list1 (B5:B15) and list2 (D5:D13) are named ranges. The result, values that appear in both lists, spills into the range F5:F11. In this case, the array is provided as the named range list1, which contains all values in B5:B15. The include argument is delivered by the COUNTIF function, which is nested inside FILTER: COUNTIF is set up with list2 as range, and list1 as criteria. Because we give COUNTIF eleven criteria values, COUNTIF returns eleven results in an array like this: Notice the 1’s correspond to items in list2 that appear in list1....
