Common Function Formulas and Techniques

To learn common Excel functions, we don't need to remember the specific operations of each function, but we need to at least do the following two things:

Common names for function formulas: What are the commonly used function formulas in Excel, and most importantly, we need to remember the common names of function formulas. Why? Once we receive some commonly used function calculation requests, if we are not familiar with the specific formulas of the functions, but at least we need to know which keywords to search for. For example, if our Excel spreadsheet has a large number of characters and our boss requires us to sort by character, we can search for results on search engines using the keyword phrase "sort by number of characters".

Search skills ensure the accuracy and authority of search results: mastering keywords, the next ability we need to possess is keyword search and filtering the articles we need from a large number of search results.

Judging the accuracy of search results from domain names and website names: The results we search for based on keywords can be varied (many of the feedback information is not what we want or the search results do not match our actual needs), so we need to judge the authority of search results from domain names and website names. For example, when we search for Baidu Experience and some Excel/Office forums, the information here is often more authoritative and accurate. We can then judge whether the technical articles we want are based on the information provided by these websites (especially by reading the user comments at the end of the article, we can basically judge whether these function formulas are correct or not)

Here are some Excel function processing examples that we often encounter in our work. I will first list the keywords of these function companies, and then I will gradually list these Excel functions (be careful not to stick to rigid formulas, and flexibly apply formulas based on your own Excel spreadsheet data)
