Formulas And Functions
Arithmetic Operations
-
+
for addition -
-
for subtraction -
*
for multiplication -
/
for division -
%
for modulus (remainder)
Basic Functions
-
SUM(range)
- calculates the sum of a range of cells -
AVERAGE(range)
- calculates the average of a range of cells -
COUNT(range)
- counts the number of cells in a range that contain numbers -
MAX(range)
- returns the maximum value in a range of cells -
MIN(range)
- returns the minimum value in a range of cells
Text Functions
-
LEN(text)
- returns the length of a text string -
LOWER(text)
- converts a text string to lowercase -
UPPER(text)
- converts a text string to uppercase -
PROPER(text)
- converts a text string to proper case (first letter capitalized)
Logical Functions
-
IF(logical_test, [value_if_true], [value_if_false])
- tests a condition and returns one value if true and another value if false -
AND(logical1, [logical2], ...)
- returns true if all conditions are true -
OR(logical1, [logical2], ...)
- returns true if any condition is true
Charts And Graphs
Types of Charts
- Column Chart: used to compare categorical data across different groups
- Bar Chart: used to compare categorical data across different groups (horizontal)
- Line Chart: used to show trends over time or other continuous data
- Pie Chart: used to show how different categories contribute to a whole
- Scatter Chart: used to show the relationship between two continuous variables
Creating a Chart
- Select the data range
- Go to the "Insert" tab
- Click on the chart type (e.g. Column, Line, etc.)
- Customize the chart as needed (e.g. title, axis labels, legend)
Chart Elements
- Title: the title of the chart
- Axis Labels: the labels on the x and y axes
- Legend: the key that explains the different series in the chart
- Data Series: the individual data points or groups in the chart
