This document discusses conditional functions and formatting in spreadsheets. It introduces logical operators like AND and OR that can be used to check if multiple conditions are true or false. The IF function allows executing different code based on whether a condition is true or false. COUNTIF counts cells that meet certain criteria. Conditional formatting lets you visually highlight cells based on conditions, like coloring cells green if their value is above a threshold. Exercises demonstrate adding columns that use these functions and formatting to analyze internet usage data.

Solving Nazarbayev University Click to enter name Lesson 9 Conditional Functions and Formatting We can calculate numeric values using +, -, *, / with cell addresses and number constants We can also preform comparisons or check for equality using >, <, =, >=, <= These give a true or false value Conditional Expressions We can check if two conditions are both true (AND), or at least one is true (OR) AND(cond1, cond2) OR(cond1, cond2)
AND and OR Conditional Functions IF(condition, valueIfT, valueIfF) IF Conditional Function Exercise: Add two columns to InternetUse.xlsx where the first computes the difference between the max and min, and the second prints Low or High depending on this difference value IF Conditional Function: Challenge Problem Exercise: Make changes to the second column so that it can print Low , Medium or High. Hint: Use a nested IF function. COUNTIF(range, criteria) COUNTIF Conditional Function Examples include: >400, =Critical Exercise: Now add three more rows that count up the number of Low, Medium, and High values 10/1/2012 Conditional Formatting Conditional Formatting Exercise: Color code the Max-Min column using Greater Than rules Conditional Formatting Exercise: Use gradual color coding for the Max-Min column using Color Scales Experiment with other visual effects such as Data Bars and Icon Sets
