BASIC EXCEL FUNCTIONS:
Addition =F1+F2+F3
Subtraction =F1-F2
Multiplication =F1*F2
Division =F1/F2
Sum =SUM(F1:F14)
Copy:
When you move a formula, the cell references within the formula do
not change. When you copy a formula, absolute
cell references do not change; relative cell
references will change.
Absolute cell reference:
-
In a formula, the exact address of a cell, regardless of the position of
the cell that contains the formula. An absolute reference takes the form
$A$1, $B$1, and so on. With the cursor on the address in the formula
you can press the F4 key to change an address to absolute.
- If you only want the absolute to be effective going horizontal,
press F$ another time and then there will be a $ only to the right of
the column letter.
- If you only want the absolute to be effective going vertical,
press F$ one more time and then there will be a $ only to the left of
the column letter.
- You can just keep pressing the F4 key to recycle through the options
Relative cell reference:
-
A cell reference, such as A1, that tells Microsoft Excel how to find another
cell by starting from the cell that contains the formula. Using a relative
reference is like giving someone directions that explain where to go from
where the person is starting out ¾ for example, "go up two blocks
and over one block."
ROUND(number,num_digits)
Number is the number you want to round.
Num_digits specifies the number of digits to which you want
to round number.
· If num_digits is greater than 0 (zero), then number is rounded
to the specified number of decimal places.
· If num_digits is 0, then number is rounded to the nearest
integer.
· If num_digits is less than 0, then number is rounded to the
left of the decimal point.
Examples
ROUND(2.15, 1) equals 2.2
ROUND(2.149, 1) equals 2.1
ROUND(-1.475, 2) equals -1.48
ROUND(21.5, -1) equals 20
ROUND((A1*B1),0) equals the product of the contents of A1 times
the contents of B1 rounded to zero decimal places.
