When to use it
When should I use PERCENTILE.EXC instead of PERCENTILE.INC?
Use PERCENTILE.EXC when you need the exclusive percentile, where k must be strictly between 0 and 1 (endpoints excluded). This matches some statistical conventions — for example, rank-based methods that treat boundary percentiles as undefined.
