 1. ROW is a function that returns a specific row number, while ROWS is a
function that returns the number of rows in a range of cells. The ROW function
in Excel is used to return the row number of a specific cell or range.

2. The INDEX Function. The INDEX function returns a value at the intersection of
a row and column you specify.
3. To generate a random number within a specified range, we can use the
RANDBETWEEN function. The syntax for this function
is =RANDBETWEEN(bottom, top), where the 'bottom' value represents the
lowest number in the range and 'top' represents the highest number in the range

Lower Case

Task 04 Change Case: Change the full

name into proper, upper, and
lowercase.
Task 05 Highlight Same Name Using
Conditional Formatting: Your task is to
highlight the duplicate names in the
three parts separately. The background
colors should be different.

Guide:
Task 06 Sort Name: Your task is to sort the
provided names in ascending and in
descending order using the SORT function.

Note: You cannot use the Sort feature of Excel

for the meantime.

Task 07 Dependent Dropdown List: Three parts of the name are given. Your
objective is to create a dependent dropdown list. There will be a dropdown list
with three parts of names. Then, in another cell the values from that list will
be shown. For example, in the first dropdown list, you will select “first name”
and in the second list the values will be from the first name column.
