F.DIST

F.DIST: Returns the F-distribution probability for `x` with numerator and denominator degrees of freedom.

Summary

Use F.DIST for left-tail cumulative probabilities or density values in variance-ratio tests.

Remarks

  • Set cumulative to non-zero for CDF mode, or 0 for PDF mode.
  • Requires x >= 0, deg_freedom1 >= 1, and deg_freedom2 >= 1.
  • Returns #NUM! when any domain constraint is violated.
  • Invalid numeric coercions propagate as spreadsheet errors.
