How to use CHIDIST
CHIDIST is kept so older workbooks keep working. It calculates the same way as CHISQ.DIST.RT, which is the name to use in new formulas.
CHIDIST takes 2 required arguments. Type =CHIDIST( in a cell and SheetsBat shows the arguments as you go. Optional arguments are shown in square brackets; leave them out to use their default.
