How to use FDIST
FDIST is kept so older workbooks keep working. It calculates the same way as F.DIST.RT, which is the name to use in new formulas.
FDIST takes 3 required arguments. Type =FDIST( 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.
Examples
Each result below was calculated by the SheetsBat formula engine.
