Microsoft Excel Built-In Functions: Takes All The Values in Each of The Specified Cells and Totals Their Values

This document summarizes several built-in functions in Microsoft Excel including SUM, AVERAGE, MAX, MIN, COUNT, COUNTA, IF, and cell referencing. It provides the purpose and syntax for each function. The SUM function totals values, AVERAGE calculates the average, MAX returns the maximum value, and MIN returns the minimum value. COUNT counts numeric entries and COUNTA counts both numeric and text entries. IF performs conditional checks. Relative cell references change when copied while absolute references remain constant with dollar signs.

Cell Referencing
Relative Cell References
 Relative references change when a formula is copied to
another cell.
Cell Referencing
Absolute Cell References
 Remain constant no matter where they are copied.
 An absolute reference is designated in a formula by the
addition of a dollar sign ($). It can precede the column
reference, the row reference, or both.
