Function name:
NORMSINV

Category:
Statistical Analysis

Summary:
Calculates values of the inverse of the cumulative distribution function for the standard normal distribution for the given arguments. The standard normal distribution has a mean of zero and a standard deviation of one.

Syntax:
NORMSINV(Number)

Returns:
Returns a real number which is the inverse of the cumulative distribution function for the standard normal distribution for the given argument.

Arguments:
Number is a real number between 0 and 1 (both exclusive) or a reference to the cell containing that number which represents the probability value used to determine the inverse standard normal distribution.


 * If Number is exactly equal to 0 or 1, then the function returns a value(#VALUE!) error.
 * If Number is greater than 1 or less than 0, then the function returns an error value.

Additional details:

 * It is such that if NORMSINV(p) = x then NORMDIST(x;0;1;TRUE) = p or NORMSDIST(x) = p.
