TTEST Function Explained

The TTEST Function in Microsoft Excel is used to calculate the probability associated with the Student’s t-Test. It is used to determine whether two samples are likely to have come from the same two underlying populations that have the same mean. It takes two arguments: array1 and array2, which are the two samples to be compared. The function returns the probability that the two samples are from the same population.
