I need to find the bestfit distribution for this. I'm using excel, so I need to be able to use xcel to graph it.

I use CurveExpert to find best fit models; give that a try. Then simply evaluate a few points from the model and plot them as separate data.

Maybe I'm using the program wrong (I don't think I am), but it's not coming up with any results.


I have no Y values, only X's, so that may be the problem? There are lots of errors for almost every test. And when I click the "scan for bestfit" button, the 20 or so different best fit models it tests all come up with a Score of 0.0.
 
As I said in the other thread, you should use a cumulative histogram of the data. The x-axis should be the errors and the y-axis should be the frequency.
 
Namaste & G'day Postulate: A strongly-knit team wins on average over a less knit one Fundamentals: - Two teams face off with 4 players each - A polo team consists of players that each have assigned to them a measure of their ability (called a "Handicap" - 10 is highest, -2 lowest) I attempted to measure close-knitness of a team in terms of standard deviation (SD) of handicaps of the players. Failure: It turns out that, more often than, a team with a higher SD wins. In my language, that...
Hi all, I've been a roulette player for more than 10 years (although I took time off here and there) and it's only now that I'm trying to understand the physics of the game. Basically my strategy in roulette is to divide the wheel roughly into two halves (let's call them A and B). My theory is that in roulette there will invariably be variance. In other words, if A comes up 5 times in a row, B will be due to come up soon. However I have been proven wrong many times, and I have seen some...
