Once you use this function, it automatically updates every time you open the workbook into the current date. It returns the serial number representing the current date and time. When using this function, take caution as this is also one of the volatile functions. What this function returns is the serial number of a date you specify. To elaborate, these functions take time as an input and convert it into individual hours, minutes, and seconds. These functions are useful when converting time to integers.
However, you can use them to convert time values to decimals. For a start, they are called logical operators. Consider these functions as the top logical functions you should learn. Both functions are related and are used to check multiple conditions. To simplify, this function allows you to specify a value to return when the value you specified encountered an error. When used to check a formula, it may make the formula look a bit complicated. But in reality, it makes troubleshooting more efficient and effective.
Using this formula no way degrades the argument or formula used. Their value lies in their binary equivalent, one 1 and zero 0. Because of that, these functions are usually integrated into larger formulas to make calculations. You have to be careful with this function and only use it when you want to reverse the value of a logical argument. Instead, it returns the total number of columns in a specified range.
These functions are useful when you need to use column numbers or the number of columns in your calculations. At first, these functions may not feel that useful. But keep an eye out in times when you need to look for data in a range of columns , these functions would prove more useful than you think.
Both functions, when combined with other functions, can do lots of useful things. For one, you can use them to randomly select a row or rows in a given range.
