Syntax of  WEIBULL.DIST function

WEIBULL.DIST(x,alpha,beta,cumulative)

The WEIBULL.DIST function syntax has the following arguments:

  • X     Required. The value at which to evaluate the function.
  • Alpha     Required. A parameter to the distribution.
  • Beta     Required. A parameter to the distribution.
