<h1>HYPGEOMDIST Function</h1>
<p>The <b>HYPGEOMDIST</b> 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.</p>
<p>The <b>HYPGEOMDIST</b> function syntax is:</p>
<p style="text-indent: 150px;"><b><em>HYPGEOMDIST(sample-successes , number-sample , population-successes , number-population)</em></b></p>
<p><em>where</em></p>
<p style="text-indent: 50px;"><b><em>sample-successes</em></b> is the number of the successes in the given sample, a numeric value greater than 0, but less than the lesser of <b><em>number-sample</em></b> or <b><em>population-successes</em></b>.</p>
<p style="text-indent: 50px;"><b><em>number-sample</em></b> - the size of the sample, a numeric value greater than 0, but less than <b><em>number-population</em></b>.</p>
<p style="text-indent: 50px;"><b><em>population-successes</em></b> - the number of the successes in the population, a numeric value greater than 0, but less than <b><em>number-population</em></b>.</p>
<p style="text-indent: 50px;"><b><em>number-population</em></b> - the size of the population, a numeric value greater than 0.</p>
<p>The numeric values can be entered manually or included into the cells you make reference to.</p>
<p>To apply the <b>HYPGEOMDIST</b> function,</p>
<ol>
<li>select the cell where you wish to display the result,</li>
