What is a formula?

result.
• What is a function?
It is a formula with a special name and purpose.
• How to enter a formula
To enter a formula:
1.Select a cell
2.Enter an equals sign (=)
3.Type the formula, and press enter.

Note: all formulas in Excel must begin with an equals sign (=).
List of formulas & functions used:
• FORECAST.LINEAR
• VLOOKUP
• CONCATENATE
• SUMIF
• TRUNC
• LOWER
=CONCATENATE(text1,text2)
• concatenation in Excel is the
process of joining two or more
values together.
• Ex: Merging cell A&B to form a
new series.
=FORECAST.LINEAR(x,known_ys,known_xs)

• The Microsoft Excel


FORECAST function returns
a prediction of a future value
based on existing values
provided. ... As a
worksheet function,
the FORECAST function can
be entered as part of
a formula in a cell of a
worksheet.
• Ex: Predicting Sales for the 9th
Month.
=VLOOKUP(lookup_value,table_array,col_index_num,[range_lookup])

VLOOKUP stands for 'Vertical


Lookup'. It is a function that
makes Excel search for a
certain value in a column (the
so called 'table array'), in order
to return a value from a
different column in the same
row.
Ex: Lookup for a Certain
Product “LAPTOP” in column
A.
=SUMIF(range,criteria,[sum_range])

• The SUMIF function is a


worksheet function that
adds all numbers in a
range of cells based on
one criteria. To add
numbers in a range based
on multiple criteria.
• Ex: To Sum a Certain
Product’s Quantity.
=LOWER(text)&” “

• To build email addresses


using first and last names,
you can use a formula that
concatenates values, with
help from the LOWER and
LEFT functions as needed.
• Ex: Generating Mail I’d
from their respective
names.
=TRUNC(number,[num_digits])

• The TRUNC function is an


Excel Math and
Trigonometry function. This
cheat sheet covers 100s
of functions that are critical
to know as an Excel analyst.
It removes the fractional part
of a number and, thus,
truncates a number to an
integer.
• Ex: Precising values to the
Required integers.
