F.DIST.RT Function

The F.DIST.RT function is one of the statistical functions. It is used to return the (right-tailed) F probability distribution (degree of diversity) for two data sets. You can use this function to determine whether two data sets have different degrees of diversity.

The F.DIST.RT function syntax is:

F.DIST.RT(x, deg-freedom1, deg-freedom2)

where

x is the value at which the function should be calculated. A numeric value greater than 0.

deg-freedom1 is the numerator degrees of freedom, a numeric value greater than 1.

deg-freedom2 is denominator degrees of freedom, a numeric value greater than 1.

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