The GAUSS function returns the probability that a random variable, drawn from a normal distribution, will be between the mean and z standard deviations above (or below) the mean. Learn more.
In Google Sheets, the GAUSS function is used to calculate the cumulative distribution function (CDF) of the standard normal distribution.
It returns the probability that a value in a standard normal distribution is less than or equal to a given z-score.
The syntax for the GAUSS function is as follows:
GAUSS(z)
Where:
z is the value for which you want to calculate the cumulative distribution.
For example, if you want to calculate the probability that a value in a standard normal distribution is less than or equal to 1.5, you would use the following formula:
=GAUSS(1.5)
The GAUSS function returns a value between 0 and 1, representing the cumulative probability.
