FDIST function in Labview

Hi All,

 

Could someone tell me which function of Labview works as same method as the FDIST function of Microsoft Excel?

 

Description of FDIST function:

Returns the F probability distribution (degree of diversity) for two data sets.

 

Format of FDIST function: 

FDIST(x, degrees of freedom1, degrees of freedom2)

 

Example:

FDIST(0.943,18,60)

Result: 0.53398

 

I have already tried both functions Continuous CDF.vi and Continuous PDF.vi but their results differ from result of FDIST.

 

Many Thanks,

Bert

Hello Bert,

 

LabVIEW's Continuous CDF VI behaves similar to MATLAB's fcdf() function, which means that:

 

[Excel's FDIST result] = 1 - [LabVIEW's Continuous CDF VI result]

 

Make sure that you select the 'F' instance in the polymorphic VI combobox below the VI itself.

 

Best regards,
