# EXPONDIST Function

The EXPONDIST function is one of the statistical functions. It is used to return the exponential distribution.

The EXPONDIST function syntax is:

EXPONDIST(x, lambda, cumulative-flag)

where

x is the value of the function, a numeric value greater than or equal to 0,

lambda is the parameter of the value, a numeric value greater than 0,

cumulative-flag is the form of the function to return, a logical value: TRUE or FALSE. If cumulative-flag is TRUE, the function will return the cumulative distribution function, if FALSE, it will return the probability density function.

The values can be entered manually or included into the cells you make reference to.
