Calculate Degrees of Freedom

Formula

The formula to calculate the Degrees of Freedom (DOF) is:

\[ \text{DOF} = \text{N} - 1 \]

Where:

What is Degrees of Freedom?

Degrees of freedom is defined as the total number of independent pieces of information that go into any statistical analysis involving sample size.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ \text{DOF} = 30 - 1 = 29 \]

The Degrees of Freedom (DOF) is 29.
