The LOGNORMDIST function in Google Sheets is used to calculate the probability of a value occurring in a log-normal distribution. This function takes in four parameters: the value, the mean, the standard deviation, and a boolean value representing whether the result should be cumulative or not. To use this function, simply input the required parameters in the correct order and the function will return the probability value. This can be helpful in analyzing data sets that follow a log-normal distribution, such as financial data or biological measurements.
LOGNORMDIST
Returns the value of the log-normal cumulative distribution with given mean and standard deviation at a specified value.
Sample Usage
LOGNORMDIST(4,4,6)
LOGNORMDIST(A2,A3,A4)
Syntax
LOGNORMDIST(x, mean, standard_deviation)
x– The input to the log-normal cumulative distribution function.mean– The mean (mu) of the log-normal cumulative distribution function.standard_deviation– The standard deviation (sigma) of the log-normal cumulative distribution function.
Notes
- A log-normal distribution function is a probability distribution function of a random variable whose logarithm is normally distributed.
