Z.TEST Returns the one-tailed P-value of a Z-test with the standard distribution.
Sample Usage
=Z.TEST(A2:A100,B2)
=Z.TEST({1,2,3,4,5,6},5.5,1.2)
Syntax
- Z.TEST(data, value, [standard_deviation])
- data – The array or range containing the dataset to consider.
- value – The test statistic to use in the Z-test.
- standard_deviation – [ OPTIONAL ] – The standard deviation to assume for the Z-test. If this is not provided, STDEV(data) will be calculated.
Notes
The P-value returned by Z.TEST is the probability that a randomly generated sample (of the same size as the data) has a mean value greater than that of the original data set.
You can use ZTEST or Z.TEST to perform this function.
