How can I use the GAMMA.INV function in Google Sheets?

The GAMMA.INV function in Google Sheets allows users to calculate the inverse of the gamma cumulative distribution for a given probability and shape parameter. This function is useful for statistical analysis and can be used by entering the appropriate arguments in the formula bar. By using the GAMMA.INV function, users can easily and accurately calculate the inverse of the gamma distribution in their Google Sheets documents.

GAMMA.INV function

The GAMMA.INV function returns the value of the inverse gamma cumulative distribution function for the specified probability, alpha, and beta parameters.

Parts of a GAMMA.INV formula

GAMMA.INV(probability, alpha, beta)

PartDescriptionNotes
probabilityThe input to the inverse gamma distribution function.
  • Must be between 0 and 1.
alphaThe shape of the gamma distribution.
  • Must be positive.
  • The sign of significance is ignored.
betaThe scale of the gamma distribution.
  • Must be positive.

Sample formulas

GAMMA.INV(0.65, 4, 2)

GAMMA.INV(C3, 3, 2)

Note

  • You can use GAMMAINV or GAMMA.INV to perform this function.
