ICommon Distribution Functions

V-Window settings for graph drawing are set automatically when the Setup screen’s “Stat Wind” setting is “Auto”. Current V-Window settings are used for graph drawing when the “Stat Wind” setting is “Manual”.

After drawing a graph, you can use the P-CAL function to calculate an estimated p-value for a particular x value. The P-CAL function can be used only after a Normal Probability Density, Student-tProbability Density, Ƶ2 Probability Density, or F Probability Density graph is drawn.

The following is the general procedure for using the P-CAL function.

1.After drawing a distribution graph, press (G-SLV) (P-CAL) to display the x value input dialog box.

2.Input the value you want for x and then press U.

This causes the x and p values to appear at the bottom of the display, and moves the pointer to the corresponding point on the graph.

3.Pressing Tor a number key at this time causes the x value input dialog box to reappear so you can perform another estimated value calculation if you want.

4.After you are finished, press )to clear the coordinate values and the pointer from the display.

Executing an analysis function automatically stores the x and p values in alpha variables X and P, respectively.

INormal Distribution

• Normal Probability Density

(DIST)(NORM)(NPd)

Normal Probability Density calculates the probability density (p) for a specified single x-value or a list. When a list is specified, calculation results for each list element are displayed in list form.
