WEIBULL function

Syntax

WEIBULL(x,alpha,beta,cumulative)

X     is the value at which to evaluate the function.

Alpha     is a parameter to the distribution.

Beta     is a parameter to the distribution.

Cumulative     determines the form of the function.

Remarks

• If x, alpha, or beta is nonnumeric, WEIBULL returns the #VALUE! error value.

• If x < 0, WEIBULL returns the #NUM! error value.

• If alpha ≤ 0 or if beta ≤ 0, WEIBULL returns the #NUM! error value.

• The equation for the Weibull cumulative distribution function is:

  

• The equation for the Weibull probability density function is:

  

• When alpha = 1, WEIBULL returns the exponential distribution with:
