NORMINV

Calculates the inverse of the cumulative NORMDIST normal distribution function.

Syntax:

NORMINV(p; α; λ)

The normal distribution is a family of continuous probability distributions, with two controlling parameters α and λ.
NORMINV returns the value n, such that NORMDIST(n; α; λ; 1) is p.

Example:

NORMINV(0.92; 63; 5)

returns approximately 70.
