VLOOKUP: • Example: =VLOOKUP(lookup_value, table_array, col_index_num, [range_lookup]) • Usage: Searches for a value in the first column of a table and returns a value in the same row from another column. 2. HLOOKUP: • Example: =HLOOKUP(lookup_value, table_array, row_index_num, [range_lookup]) • Usage: Similar to VLOOKUP, but searches in the first row of a table. 3. INDEX-MATCH: • Example: =INDEX(return_range, MATCH(lookup_value, lookup_range, 0)) • Usage: A more flexible alternative to VLOOKUP or HLOOKUP for lookups. 4. SUMIFS: • Example: =SUMIFS(sum_range, criteria_range1, criteria1, [criteria_range2, criteria2, ...]) • Usage: Adds values based on multiple criteria. 5. COUNTIFS: • Example: =COUNTIFS(criteria_range1, criteria1, [criteria_range2, criteria2, ...]) • Usage: Counts cells based on multiple criteria. 6. AVERAGEIFS: • Example: =AVERAGEIFS(average_range, criteria_range1, criteria1, [criteria_range2, criteria2, ...]) • Usage: Calculates the average based on multiple criteria. 7. CONCATENATE: • Example: =CONCATENATE(text1, [text2, ...]) or =text1 & [text2] • Usage: Combines text from multiple cells into one cell. 8.
