 What is T.DIST function in Excel?

T.DIST function is one of Statistical functions in Microsoft Excel that returns the Student’s left-tailed t-distribution. The t-distribution is used in the hypothesis testing of small sample data sets. Use this function in place of a table of critical values for the t-distribution.

The T.DIST function syntax has the following arguments:

  • X: The numeric value at which to evaluate the distribution
  • Deg_freedom: An integer indicating the number of degrees of freedom.
  • Cumulative:  A logical value that determines the form of the function. If cumulative is TRUE, T.DIST returns the cumulative distribution function; if FALSE, it returns the probability density function.

Explanation of T.DIST function

  • If any argument is nonnumeric, T.DIST returns the #VALUE! error value.
  • If deg_freedom < 1, T.DIST returns an error value. Deg_freedom needs to be at least 1.
