LIST OF FUNCTIONS
NO. FUNCTION PARAMETERS DESCRIPTION
1. =SUM() (range of values) Adds all numbers in the given range of
values.
2. =SUMIF() (range, criteria, sum_range) adds all numbers in a range of cells
based on the given condition or criteria
3. =AVERAGE() (range of values) Finds the mean of the given range of
values.
4. =AVERAGEIF() (range, criteria, Calculates the average if the criteria
[average_range] gets satisfied.
5. =MAX() (range of values) Finds the largest number from the
range of values.
6. =MIN() (range of values) Finds the smallest number from the
range of values.
7. =INT() (value) Rounds a number down to the nearest
integer that is less than or equal to it.
8. =ROUND() (number, no of places) Rounds a number to a certain number
of decimal places, can be either a bit
more or less than the original value.
9. =ROUNDDOWN() (value, places) Rounds a number to a certain number
of decimal places, always rounding
down to the next valid increment.
10. =ROUNDDUP() (value, places) Rounds a number to a certain number
of decimal places, always rounding up
to the next valid increment.
11. =TRUNC() (number to truncate) It returns a truncated number based on
an (optional) number of digits. For
example, TRUNC(4.9) will return 4,
and TRUNC(-3.5) will return -3.
The TRUNC function does no rounding,
it simply truncates as specified.
12. =COUNT() (range of values) Counts the number of cells with any
characters in selected range.
13. =COUNTA() (range of values) Counts the number of cells that contain
only alphabets in selected range.
14. =COUNTBLANK() (range of values) It counts blank cells in a range, where
the word blank means empty.
15. =COUNTIF() (range, criteria) Counts the cell if they fulfil the criteria

16. =IF() (logical expression, value if Returns one value if a logical

true, value if false) expression is `TRUE` and another if it is
`FALSE`.
17. =IF() [nested] (logical expression, value if allows you to test multiple criteria and
true, IF(logical expression, increases the number of possible
value if true, value if false)) outcomes
18. =LOOKUP() (lookup_value, lookup_vector, Performs a rough match lookup either
[result_vector]) in a one-row or one-column range and
returns the corresponding value from
another one-row or one-column range.
19. =LOOKUP() (lookup_value, array) Performs a rough match lookup either
in a one-row or one-column range and
returns the corresponding value from
another one-row or one-column range.

column_index_num, leftmost column of a table and returns
[range_lookup]) the corresponding value from a column
to the right.
21. =HLOOKUP() (lookup_value, table_array, Horizontal lookup. Looks up a value in
column_index_num, the topmost column of a table and
[range_lookup]) returns the corresponding value from a
column below.
22. =UPPER() (text) Converts all the letters in the given text
into upper case.

23. =LOWER() (text) Coverts all the letters in the given text
to lower case.
24. =LEFT() (text,[num_characters]) Extracts a specific number of
characters from the left.
25. =RIGHT() (text,[num_characters]) Extracts a specific number of
characters from the right.

26. =MID() (text, start_number, Extracts a specific number of

number_characters) characters from the middle.

27. =CONCATENATE() (text 1, text 2, text 3 … text n ) Combines the texts specified in the
n = any number formula with spaces in between

28. =TRIM() (text) Removes all the extra spaces in a text

leaving a single space between 2
words.
