Syntax

T.DIST.2T(x,deg_freedom)

The T.DIST.2T function syntax has the following arguments:

  • X     Required. The numeric value at which to evaluate the distribution.

  • Deg_freedom     Required. An integer indicating the number of degrees of freedom.

Remarks

  • If any argument is nonnumeric, T.DIST.2T returns the #VALUE! error value.

  • If deg_freedom < 1, T.DIST.2T returns the #NUM! error value.

  • If x < 0, then T.DIST.2T returns the #NUM! error value.
