About the P-Value Calculator

Convert a z, t, chi-square, or F statistic into an accurate p-value with a visual.

What it is

Once you've computed a test statistic, the last step in a hypothesis test is finding its p-value โ€” traditionally done by looking up a printed table and interpolating. This tool computes the p-value directly using accurate cumulative distribution function approximations, for the four statistics used across most introductory and intermediate statistics courses.

Features

Four statistic types

Z, T, chi-square, and F, each with the appropriate degrees-of-freedom inputs.

Tail selection

Left, right, or two-tailed for z and t; chi-square and F default to right-tailed as is standard.

Shaded distribution graph

A live canvas plot of the relevant distribution with the p-value region shaded.

Accurate CDF implementations

Uses the incomplete beta and incomplete gamma functions for the t, chi-square, and F distributions.

Significance flags

Instantly see whether your result is significant at ฮฑ = 0.05, 0.01, and 0.001.
