## Syntax

NTFKURT(

• N1,
• N2

)

#### Parameters

• N1 is a parameter of the distribution $N_1$ (Positive integer).
• N2 is a parameter of the distribution $N_2\;(>8)$.

## Remarks

The kurtosis of the distribution is given as:

$\frac{12[(N_2-2)^2(N_2-4)+N_1(N_1+N_2-2)(5N_2-22)]}{N_1(N_2-6)(N_2-8)(N_1+N_2-2)}$
