Dear DAX fellows,
I need to calculate some process statistics, and so far I found many statistical functions in DAX, including formulas for CHI²-distribution, exponential distribution and so on.
Why is there no normal distribution? In Excel this is NORM.S.DIST - but in DAX?
I don't want to prepare a lookup table giving the z-level and cumulated percentile... I'd rather like to do it in a measure.
Any ideas?
Many thanks in advance!
Solved! Go to Solution.
Wow - I just saw it popping up after updating PowerBI. It must have been implemented in the July Update...
there is idea for it, which means it's probably still not included
