How to Use the GUSSE Function in Excel

This guide explains how to use GUSSE Function in Excel, including its syntax, required arguments, practical examples, and common errors.

Description: The function returns the probability that an element of the normalized population will fall into the mean and the standard deviation. Support functions from Excel 2013 onwards.

Syntax: GAUSS (z)

Inside:

- z: The value to calculate the standardized overall probability, which is a required parameter.

Attention:

- If the function's z value is not numeric -> the function returns the #VALUE! Error value

- If z is an invalid number -> the function returns the #NUM! Error value

- The value of the GAUSS function returns less than 0.5 because NORM. S. DIST (0, True) always returns 0.5

For example:

Calculate the normalized overall probability of the values in the following data table:

- In the cell to calculate enter the formula : = GAUSS (C6)

- Press Enter -> normalized overall probability is:

- Similarly copying the formula for the remaining values results:

- Where x is not a number -> the function returns the error value #VALUE!

The above are instructions and some specific examples when using GAUSS function in Excel.

Good luck!
