Lesson Summary

Microsoft@ Excel provides an automated way of displaying any statistical data. It can be used to
automatically compute for several factors that are not easy to notice especially when faced by a large
data. Microsoft@ Excel includes several arithmetic and basic functions that help you compute faster.

With Microsoft@ Excel, organizing and analyzing data are much simpler through the use of conditional
functions such as COUNTIF, AVERAGEIF, and SUMIF. These functions work almost the same as Count,
Average, and Sum with the exception that you can provide criteria where if it is not met, the data is to
be ignored by the formula, and therefore not the computer.

COUNTIF syntax includes range and criteria. Range is the cells involved, and criteria is the value or label
that needs to be fulfilled if the part of the range is to be counted. AVERAGEIF and SUMIF, on the other
hand, have three parts of its syntax: range, criteria, and average range. The range and criteria work the
same as COUNTIF's syntax with the exception that it would be averaged or summed. The average range
is an optional part of the syntax. It is where the actual range of cells that will be averaged or summed is
located. If it is not specified, the range will be used instead.
