<h1>TRIMMEAN Function</h1>
|
|
<p>The <b>TRIMMEAN</b> function is one of the statistical functions. It is used to return the mean of the interior of a data set. <b>TRIMMEAN</b> calculates the mean taken by excluding a percentage of data points from the top and bottom tails of a data set.</p>
|
|
<p>The <b>TRIMMEAN</b> function syntax is:</p>
|
|
<p style="text-indent: 150px;"><b><em>TRIMMEAN(array, percent)</em></b></p>
|
|
<p><em>where</em></p>
|
|
<p style="text-indent: 50px;"><b><em>array</em></b> is the range of numeric values to trim and average.</p>
|
|
<p style="text-indent: 50px;"><b><em>percent</em></b> is a total percent of data points to exclude from the calculation. A numeric value greater than or equal to 0 but less than 1. The number of excluded data points is rounded down to the nearest multiple of 2. E.g., if <b><em>array</em></b> contains 30 values and <b><em>percent</em></b> is 0.1, 10 percent of 30 points is 3. This value is rounded down to 2, so 1 point is trimmed from each tail of the data set: 1 from the top and 1 from the bottom of the set. </p>
|
|
<p>The values can be entered manually or included into the cell you make reference to.</p>
