MICROSOFT EXCEL NOTE AND WORKBOOK
Multiple arguments must be separated by a comma. For example, the function =SUM(A1:A3, C1:C2,
E1) will add the values of all of the cells in the three arguments.
Creating a Function
There are a variety of functions available in Excel. Here are some of the most common functions
you'll use:
• SUM: This function adds all of the values of the cells in the argument.
• AVERAGE: This function determines the average of the values included in the
argument. It calculates the sum of the cells and then divides that value by the number
of cells in the argument.
• COUNT: This function counts the number of cells with numerical data in the argument.
This function is useful for quickly counting items in a cell range.
• MAX: This function determines the highest cell value included in the argument.
• MIN: This function determines the lowest cell value included in the argument.
