HYPGEOM.DIST

Hypergeometric distribution[1][2].

Syntax:

HYPGEOM.DIST( sample_successes:Number, number_sample:Number, population_successes:Number, number_population:Number {, cumulative:Boolean} )

Returns the value of the cumulative distribution function (CDF) or the probability mass function (PMF) for the hypergeometric distribution for a sample with sample_successes, number_sample and a population with population_successes, number_population.

cumulative selects CDF (TRUE) or PMF (FALSE, default).

Revisions:

This function was added in Fireworkz 2.00.
