Excel Formulas

The bread and butter of Excel

You

must have an equals sign ( = ) as the

first character in a cell that contains a
formula.
The = sign tells excel that the contents of
the cell is a formula
Without the = sign, the formula will not
calculate anything. It will simply display
the text of the formula.

Errors in Formulas

The following are some errors that may appear in a spreadsheet

(there are others too).
#######

Cell is too narrow to display the results of the formula. To fix this simply make
the column wider and the real value will be displayed instead of the
###### signs. Note that even when the ###### signs are being displayed,
Excel still uses the real value to calculate formulas that reference this cell.

#NAME?

You used a cell reference in the formula that is not formed correctly (e.g.
=BB+10 instead of =B3+10)

#VALUE!

Usually the result of trying to do math with a textual value. Example: =A1*3
where A1 contains the word hello

#DIV/0!

Trying to divide by zero. Example: =3/A1 where A1 contains 0 (zero)

Circular Reference

Using a formula that contains a reference to the cell that the formula lives in.
Example: putting the formula =A1+1 in cell A1 or putting the formula
=SUM(A1:B2) in any of the cells A1, B1, A2, B2

Common Errors

A function is a "named
Functions have :

operation"

a name
parentheses
parameters/arguments inside the parentheses
The words parameter and argument mean the
same thing
you can have many parameters for one function
separated with commas (,)
The number of parameters is one more than the
number of commas.

Syntax for NESTED IF

We can type IF on IF (Nested IF)

=IF(logicaltest_1,valueifTrue,IF(logicaltest_n, valueifTrue,valueifFalse))

Note :
Comma (,) or commapoint (;) depend of your excel
use if the value is string or character

Create this table!

Fill the desc 2 with :

EXCELLENT
If UHT 90 - 100
VERY GOOD
If UHT 76 89
TRY AGAIN
If UHT 0 -75

We can type on Cell E5

=IF(C5<=75,TRY AGAIN,IF(C5<=89,VERY GOOD,EXCELLENT))

EXAMPLE

Gunakan fungsi
LEFT,MID,RIGHT
karakater & ut c. Keterangan ID
mengabungkan
terdiri dari 5 digit, diambil dari
IDnya

No.UJIAN:

- 1 digit terakhir pd segmen ke-1

- 3 digit pada segment ke-3
- 1 digit pada segment ke-4

Gunakan fungsi
LEFT,MID,RIGHT
di dalam fungsi IF

d. Keterangan KELAS
- Jika 2 digit pertama NO.UJIAN
01 = XI-IPA,

02=XI-IPS

- digit ke-4 dari ID menunjukan pararel

kelas, format KELAS (XI-IPA.2)

b. Keterangan lulus
a. Grade
Jika nilai ujian lebih besar dari 90 maka grade A Jika nilai grade A maka keterangan sangat baik
Jika nilai ujian lebih besar dari 80 maka grade B Jika nilai grade B maka keterangan baik
Jika nilai ujian lebih besar dari 70 maka grade C Jika nilai grade C maka keterangan cukup
Jika nilai ujian lebih besar dari = 60 maka grade DJika nilai grade D maka keterangan kurang baik
Jika nilai ujian lebih kecil dari 60 maka grade E Jika nilai grade E maka keterangan sangat jelek

Function Editor
Put values for the parameters in
the edit boxes.

When you press OK, this will create the

Syntax for IF
U can type on cell using :

=IF(logicaltest,valueifTrue,valueifFalse)
Note :
Comma (,) or commapoint (;) depend of your excel
use if the value is string or character
We can type IF on IF (Nested IF)

=IF(logicaltest,valueifTrue,IF(logicaltest, valueifTrue,valueifFalse))

Syntax :
=LEFT(text,numchar)
=MID(text,startnum,numchar)
=RIGHT(text,numchar)
