Microsoft Excel Learning Guide

From Basic to Advanced Formulas

📘 Beginner Formulas
 **=SUM(A1:A10)** → Adds up numbers
 **=AVERAGE(A1:A10)** → Finds the mean value
 **=MIN(A1:A10) / =MAX(A1:A10)** → Smallest & largest values
 **=COUNT(A1:A10)** → Counts numbers
 **=COUNTA(A1:A10)** → Counts all non-empty cells
 **=IF(A1>50,"Pass","Fail")** → Basic logical test
 **=TODAY() / =NOW()** → Insert current date & time

📗 Intermediate Formulas
 **=TRIM(A1)** → Removes extra spaces
 **=PROPER(A1) / =UPPER(A1) / =LOWER(A1)** → Text formatting
 **=CONCATENATE(A1," ",B1) or =A1&" "&B1** → Combine text
 **=LEFT(A1,4) / =RIGHT(A1,3) / =MID(A1,2,5)** → Extract text
 **=LEN(A1)** → Count characters in a cell
 **=SEARCH("apple",A1) / =FIND("apple",A1)** → Find text inside a cell
 **=ROUND(A1,2) / =ROUNDUP() / =ROUNDDOWN()** → Rounding numbers
 **=IFERROR(A1/B1,"Error")** → Handle errors safely
 **=AND(A1>0,B1<10) / =OR(A1>0,B1<10)** → Complex logic

📙 Advanced Formulas
 Lookup & Reference

 **=VLOOKUP(lookup_value, table_array, col_index, FALSE)** → Search by column


 **=HLOOKUP(lookup_value, table_array, row_index, FALSE)** → Search by row
 **=INDEX(range, row, column)** → Pull value from a position
 **=MATCH(lookup_value, range, 0)** → Find position of a value
 **=XLOOKUP(lookup_value, lookup_array, return_array)** → Modern replacement
for VLOOKUP

 Data Analysis

 **=SUMIF(range, criteria, sum_range)** → Conditional sum


 **=COUNTIF(range, criteria)** → Conditional count
 **=SUMPRODUCT(array1,array2)** → Multiply & sum arrays
 **=UNIQUE(range)** → List unique values (Excel 365+)
 **=FILTER(range, condition)** → Filter data dynamically
 **=SORT(range, column, order)** → Sort data dynamically

 Array & Dynamic Formulas (Excel 365/2021)

 **=SEQUENCE(rows, columns, start, step)** → Generate number series


 **=TEXTJOIN(", ", TRUE, A1:A5)** → Join text with a delimiter
 **=LET(name,value,calculation)** → Define variables in formulas
 **=LAMBDA(parameters, formula)** → Create custom functions

📕 Expert / Specialized
 **=INDIRECT("Sheet2!A1")** → Refer to dynamic ranges
 **=OFFSET(reference, rows, cols, height, width)** → Return a shifted range
 **=CELL("address",A1)** → Info about cell
 Array formulas (e.g., {=SUM(A1:A10*B1:B10)} in older Excel)
 Power Query & Power Pivot (not formulas, but essential for advanced analysis)
