BINOMDIST excel command in pages? binomial distribution?to

I am in the middle of a statistics class and there is an excel command BINOMDIST(x,n,p,1)...I tried it in pages to no avail. Is there an equivalent command in pages to do Binomial Distrbutions or do I need to go out and get Excel?

Searching with NORMDIST which is the name of a statistical function was quite necessarily helpless.

Numbers is not forced to use the same name than the one used by XL for a given function.
So,the fact that it was not found meant only that there is no function with this exact name.

I thought that someone accustomed with statistics would easily think to use the keyword statistics or statistical.
It appears that I was wrong 😉
