 What are Spilled Arrays?

In September 2018, Microsoft announced the following

2 major changes:

1. Change in Excel’s calculation engine that allows us to input

one formula and get many results.

2. 7 new functions that were referred to as Dynamic Array

functions.
It affects not just the advanced but ALL users of Excel.
Results will now spill to cells around the formula cell
The change in the calculation engine helps you get multiple end results.
Whenever you have more than 1 end result, the rest of the results will spill
to cells around the formula cell.
 Note: For a Spill range on cell
range
1. The formula “lives” only in cell G6. – i.e. only that cell is editable. The
formula in the cells below other than G6 will be greyed out.

2. The highlighted blue border appears if you are in a cell inside the spilled
range to show the extent of the spill. It disappears if you move outside
the spilled range.

3. The spilled range doesn’t carry over source formatting. Formatting does
not spill.

4. If there are existing values in the cells of the output range – you will
receive the new #SPILL! Error. This means the values can’t spill because
something is blocking it. Removing the obstruction will automatically
spill the formula
 Note: For a Spill Range on a
table
1. If the spilled range is referencing an Excel Table, the range will
automatically expand or shrink as the tables size changes. In the
example demonstrated in the webinar, if we add more data to the
Excel Table, the spilled array in range G28 will automatically
expand to include it.
Note: To refer a Spill Range
1. To dynamically reference a spilled range, you need to refer to the
first cell (where the formula lives) and put in the hash (#) sign. In
the example used in the webinar you can input =G28# in L28 to
reference the entire spilled range.
 XLOOKUP FORMULA
XLOOKUP is an upgrade over your traditional VLOOKUP & HLOOKUP
formulas.
It removes the earlier limitation of lookup formulas not being able to look to
the left side.

It can look to the left and can lookup in both directions.

Other advantages include:

1. Single Formula for horizontal as well as vertical lookups. No more H &
Vlookups.
2. Assigning text or value if you return an error in the if_not_found
argument
3. Built-in wildcard match
4. Searching last to fast option available now

=XLOOKUP(lookup_value, lookup_array, return_array,

[if_not_found], [match_mode], [search_mode])

XLOOKUP doesn’t find a match Can be: from First to Last
and returns a N/A error. 1. Exact Or
For example: “Nothing Found” 2. Approx or Smaller Last to First
3. Approx or Larger Default is First to Last
4. Wildcard
 FILTER FORMULA
Use the Filter formula to get a subset of your source data in a different
place dynamically. The subset will be based on a particular criteria you
mention.

This is different from the normal filter function as the end result is dynamic
and will constantly update if any change is made to the source.

Filter formula has the potential to become the new power lookup formula
because of it’s insane filtering capacity.

You can use the Filter formula in combination with multiple other
formulas.
We’ll be practicing an instance of this combination in the Combine
Worksheet of the webinar Excel file.
 Criteria to filter your array by.
Example: B6:B20 = “Kerala”
Or C6:C20 > 30000. Whatever
cells fit the criteria, the rows of
them show up in the filter
formula result.

=FILTER(array, include,
[if_empty])
The data that you want a Optional Argument: If no cells match the
subset of. Select the columns criteria mentioned in include and filter has
that you want to have in the nothing to show, what do you want to see
end result. instead of an error.
Example: Mention “Can’t find anything”
here to see the text whenever filter doesn’t
find anything.
 SORT & SORTBY FORMULA
Similar to the filter formula, SORT & SORTBY formulas are used to sort your
source data in a different place dynamically.

You use SORT formula when the end result is sorted based on a column
that is going to be a part of your end result. For example: If you plan
to sort a table with A, B & C columns by B column and your end result will
have all 3 columns i.e A, B & C, use the SORT formula.

You use SORTBY formula when the end result is sorted based on a column
that is NOT going to be a part of your end result. For example: If you
plan to sort a table with A, B & C columns by B column and your end result
will have only the A & C column, use the SORTBY formula.
 Is your data horizontal instead of vertical?
The index number of the column you want to sort your If yes, set it to TRUE. Default is FALSE i.e
data by. vertical
Default is 1.

=SORT(array, [sort_index], [sort_order],

[by_col])
The data that will you will How do you want to sort your data?
sort. Ascending (default if you don’t enter a value here) is 1.
Descending is -1

Column by which you want to sort your array.

=SORTBY(array, by_array, [sort_order], ...)

The data that will you will How do you want to sort your data?
sort. Ascending (default if you don’t enter a value here) is 1.
Can be a part of your data as Descending is -1
 UNIQUE FORMULA
Unique formula is used to extract the following:

1. Unique or Distinct Values from the input data

2. Values which occur exactly once

Best part about the formula is that it is dynamic. No other function in Excel
that is used to extract unique items is dynamic so this is a really great
formula for practical uses.

Is your data horizontal instead of vertical? If yes, set it
to TRUE. Default is FALSE i.e vertical

=UNIQUE(array, [by_col], [exactly_once])

from. have no duplicates i.e that occur exactly once (TRUE)? Default

 Map Chart Visual
Use Map Charts whenever you have Geographical data. Excel will only plot
the map of the region which contains the given data i.e Indian Map for
Indian States data, US Map for US States data. Excel is really smart, you
see!

Steps: Select your data > Insert > Maps > Filled Map
 Funnel Chart Visual
Use Funnel Charts whenever you are dealing with a Marketing / Sales
funnel or you want to show the flow of a process.

Steps: Select your data > Insert > Waterfall Chart Icon > Funnel
