RE: if functions

Hi Sarah
Sorry for late reply.
Multiple IF functions...

For example suppose you want to use multiple 'if' functions to tell you whether a temperature is hot if above 25C, warm if above 15C, or cold if 15C or below.

A B
Temp Hot/Warm/Cold Result
26 =IF(A2>25,"Hot",IF(A2>15,"Warm","Cold")) Hot
14 Cold
23 Warm

Create this example then copy the function from B2 to B3:B4 to see the result.

For more results, eg freezing if below 0C, replace "Cold" with IF(A2>0,"Cold","Freezing")

Excel tip:

COUNT function vs COUNTA function

The COUNTA function works in the same way as the COUNT function, except that it will count cells that contain text (labels) and also cells that contain numbers (values). The COUNT function will only count cells that contain numbers. Blank cells are not counted by either the COUNT or the COUNTA function.
