This document provides an overview of key formulas and functions in Excel including logical operators, math formulas, text formulas, date and time formulas, lookup and reference formulas, information formulas, filters, pivot tables, and charts. Logical operators allow you to perform logical tests like AND, OR, and IF. Math formulas include SUM, AVERAGE, COUNT, MIN, and MAX. Text formulas extract or manipulate text. Date and time formulas work with dates. Lookup formulas like VLOOKUP and HLOOKUP find values. Information formulas check for errors, blanks, or if a cell contains a formula. Filters, pivot tables, and charts help analyze and visualize data.
4. If Operator
what does it do?
4
• The If Function can perform a logical test
and return one value for a TRUE Result,
and another for a False Result.
IF(Logical Test,value_if_true,value_if_false)
Example - IF(A1>35,“Pass” ,“Fail”)
5. IFERROR Operator
What does it do?
5
• The IFERROR function can perform a
logical test and return one value for a
TRUE result, and another if there is error
in formula/value.
IFERROR IF
(A1/B1,“Valid Value” ,“Error in calculation”)
6. AND Operator
What does it do?
6
• Return TRUE if all of the argument
evaluate to TRUE
IF(AND(A1>35,B1>35), “PASS”, “FAIL”,
7. OR Operator
What does it do?
7
• Return TRUE if all of the argument
evaluate to TRUE
IF(OR(A1>75,B1>75), “GOOD JOB”, “IMPROVE”)
21. EXACT
What does it do?
21
• Compares two strings and returns TRUE if
both values are the same. Exact (text1,text2)
22. FIND
What does it do?
22
• Used to return the position of a specific
character or substring within a text string. Find(Text to find, source text,optional_start_position)
23. SEARCH
What does it do?
23
• Used to return the position of a specific
character or substring within a text string-NOT
CASE SENSITIVE
Search(Text to find, source
text,optional_start_position)
24. LEN
What does it do?
24
• Returns the length of the specified strings Len(string)
25. LEFT
What does it do?
25
• Extract a substring from string, starting from
the left-most character. Left(source text, end number / char position)
26. RIGHT
What does it do?
26
• Returns the last character or characters in a
text strings, based on the number of
characters you specify
Right(source text, end number / char position)
27. MID
What does it do?
27
• Extract text from inside a string. Mid(source text, end number / char position)
37. VLOOKUP
What does it do?
37
• Performs a vertical lookup by searching for a
value in the first column of a table and
returning the value in the same row
VLOOKUP
(value to search,source_table,column_number_to_display, FALSE)
38. HLOOKUP
What does it do?
38
• Performs a horizontal lookup by searching for
a value in the first column of a table and
returning the value in the same row
HLOOKUP
(value to search,source_table,column_number_to_display, FALSE)
40. ISERROR
What does it do?
40
• Checks whether a value is an error and
returns TRUE or FALSE ISERROR(value or expression)
41. ISBLANK
What does it do?
41
• Checks whether a cell IS BLANK OR NOT
AND RETURNS true OR false ISBLANK (CELL)
42. ISFORMULA
What does it do?
42
• The if function can perform a logical test and
return one value for a TRUE result, and
another for a FALSE result
ISFORMULA(cell)
