# NORM.S.DIST

## Content

This function returns the standard normal cumulative distribution function.

## Syntax

`NORM.S.DIST(value, cumulative)`

## Arguments

This function has these arguments:

| Argument | Description |
| -------- | ----------- |
| *value* | [Required] A numeric value for which you want the distribution |
| *cumulative* | [Required] A logical value that determines the form of the function. If cumulative is TRUE, the function returns the cumulative distribution function; if FALSE, it returns the probability mass function |

## Remarks

The distribution has a mean of zero and a standard deviation of one.
Use this function in place of a table of standard normal curve areas.
If *value* is non-numeric, the #VALUE! error value is returned.

## Examples

`NORM.S.DIST(F1,TRUE)`
`NORM.S.DIST(R1C6,TRUE)`
`NORM.S.DIST(1.288,TRUE)` gives the result 0.901127
