Excel's T Distribution Function: How and Why you Use This Tool
If you’re working with a small sample (less than about 30 or 40) in Microsoft Excel, you can use the Student’s t-test instead of the z-value or z-score to find the probability with which a value falls below a certain number or to test how far an individual observation is from the mean. To do
so, you use the TINV function.
Using the Excel TDIST Function
You can use the TDIST function to make inferences about the value of a population mean.
For example, if you randomly select 20 people from a factory floor, ask them to try a new production method, and then find that they can produce 17.25 units an hour with a sample standard deviation of 3.3, you can find the probability that the population mean takes the value of 16 or less. To do so, you use Excel’s TDIST function. The function uses the following syntax:
=TDIST(x, degrees of freedom, tails)
For this example, the function takes the following form:
=TDIST (16,19,1)
Depending on your level of significance, you accept or reject the hypothesis.
The hypothesis in this example is one-tailed; that is, you’re interested in finding probabilities of values less than 16. If instead you need to find the probabilities of values both above and below x, your hypothesis is two-tailed.
Using the Excel TINV Function
If you know the probability and want to find the t-value, use the TINV function. This function has the following syntax:
=TINV (probability, degrees of freedom)
If this is based on a one-tailed t distribution, multiply the probability by 2.
Using the Excel TTEST Function
To find the probability associated with a Student’s t-test, use the TTEST function. The t-test is most frequently used to test for a difference between two means. The TTEST function uses the following syntax:
=TTEST (data set 1,data set 2,tails,type)
where type equals 1 for paired, 2 for two samples with equal variance, or 3 for 2 samples with unequal variance.

How to set timer in baby swings?
I got Graco Winnie The Pooh baby swings at a yard sell in excellent condition .The only problem is I forgot to ask the seller how to set the timer on it.It Has 6 speeds.
You can call Graco, (their number is on their website) and they can send you a copy of the instruction manual. Or they might have it online, who knows.
I have the Lovin Hugs swing from them and the timer works like this - press once for 10 min, 2x for 20 min, 3x for 30 min and press once to turn it off when set. Without seeing the control panel it's hard to say if it is similar or not.
