Name

KURT —
KURT(n1, n2, ...)

Description

KURT returns an unbiased estimate of the kurtosis of a data set.

Note, that this is only meaningful is the underlying distribution really has a fourth moment. The kurtosis is offset by three such that a normal distribution will have zero kurtosis.

Strings and empty cells are simply ignored.

If fewer than four numbers are given or all of them are equal KURT returns #DIV/0! error.
