Normal distribution probability

Does Domo have anything similar to the norm.dist() function in excel or the probnorm() function in SAS? I'm looking to use it in a beastmode or calculated field within views explorer.

norm.dist (excel) - https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/norm-dist-function-edb1cc14-a21c-4e53-839d-8082074c9f8d

probnorm (sas) - https://documentation.sas.com/doc/en/pgmsascdc/9.4_3.5/lefunctionsref/p0am6dtkvnrb09n132vioa1z6oen.htm

If not, what's the best alternative? Importing a table of distributions would solve the problem but means I need to add a bunch of additional steps which I'd rather avoid if possible.

Thanks

    Hi @user10110

    Domo doesn't have anything built in to calculate a normal distribution probability. You'd need to calculate it yourself via an algorithm

  • ask your CSM to enable the MEDIAN function. There are a handful of statistic functions that can be enabled in anlayzer.

  • Thanks @jaeW_at_Onyx . Yeah I stumbled across those function options in the top right corner of the views UI last night. Specifically I was wanting to include 4 observations either side of the current row into the stdev calculation. Unfortunately I think in order to achieve that I need to jump through so many hoops it becomes easier to dump the data from Domo elsewhere, perform the calcs I need, then reimport it.
