Definition

Returns the two-tailed P-value of a Z-test with standard distribution.

Sample Usage

ZTEST(A2:A100,B2)

ZTEST({1,2,3,4,5,6},5.5,1.2)

Syntax

ZTEST(data, value, [standard_deviation])

  • data - The array or range containing the dataset to consider.

  • value - The test statistic to use in the Z-test.

  • standard_deviation - [ OPTIONAL ] - The standard deviation to assume for the Z-test. If this is not provided, STDEV(data) will be calculated.

Notes

  • The P-value returned by ZTEST is the probability that a value chosen at random from data is at least as extreme (that is, as far from the mean) as value.
