TEXT, VALUES, FORMULA AND FUNCTIONS
PARTS FUNCTION
Texts are letters, symbols, numbers and spaces
Text or any combination that you enter into a cell. A value is a number you enter into a cell that you may use in a formula later. You may include Value in the value the numeric symbols such as decimal point, comma or currency. A formula is used to calculate values. You may Formula use an equal sign (=) or the AutoSUM function to build a formula. Functions are built-in formulas you can use to Function make your worksheet construction easier. Arithmetic Operation and Corresponding Keyboard Sign Sign Operation Example Meaning
Addition =B5+C5 Adds the values of cell
+ B5 and C5. Subtraction =B5-C5 Subtracts the value of - cell C5 from B5. Multiplication =B5*C5 Multiplies the values * of cells B5 and C5. Division =B5/C5 Divides the value of / cell B5 by C5. Exponentiation =B5^3 Increases the value of ^ B5 to the third power. Formula Error Messages Attempts the undefined operation of #DIV0 dividing by zero. Tries to calculate something that is #VALUE not a value (such as a deleted cell). Addresses a cell that does not exist #REF! (such as a deleted cell). Uses a cell name that you have not #NAME? defined or was misspelled. Attempts an impossible mathematical #NUM! operation. Excel Functions Calculates the sum of the values or =SUM range of cells. Calculates the arithmetic mean of =AVERAGE a range of cells or values. Gives the maximum value in a =MAX range of cells or values. Gives the minimum value in a =MIN range of cells or values. Counts the number of cells in a =COUNT range of cells.
