HYPGEOM.DIST Function

The HYPGEOM.DIST function is one of the statistical functions. It is used to return the hypergeometric distribution, the probability of a given number of sample successes, given the sample size, population successes, and population size.

Syntax

HYPGEOM.DIST(sample_s, number_sample, population_s, number_pop, cumulative)

The HYPGEOM.DIST function has the following arguments:

ArgumentDescription
sample_sThe number of the successes in the given sample, a numeric value greater than 0, but less than the lesser of number_sample or population_s.
number_sampleThe size of the sample, a numeric value greater than 0, but less than number_pop.
population_sThe number of the successes in the population, a numeric value greater than 0, but less than number_pop.
number_popThe size of the population, a numeric value greater than 0.
cumulativeA logical value (TRUE or FALSE) that determines the function form. If it is TRUE, the function returns the cumulative distribution function. If it is FALSE, the function returns the probability mass function.
