Excel IF Function

MS Excel, or Microsoft Excel, is a powerful spreadsheet program that enables users to record
large amounts of data in cells within multiple worksheets. Additionally, it allows users to
perform various mathematical calculations and analytical operations on recorded data using
a wide range of existing functions and formulas. The IF function is one such built-in widely
used, most popular Excel function.

3. Syntax of IF Function

=IF(logical test, value_if_true, value_if_false)


The general format of the Excel IF function is defined as
below:

=IF(A1>B2, "TRUE", "FALSE")

• We separated the different


arguments (or parts) in the IF
formula by a Comma (,). However,
we can also use the Semicolon (;)
How to use IF Function in excel
examples to illustrate the use of the IF function:
Sum if Function
• Syntax
• The syntax for the Sum if function is as follows,
• =SUMIF (range, criteria, [sum range])
Example of sum if
• Example 1: How to sum the cells whose value are
greater than 50?
• To sum the cells value greater than 50, the steps to be
followed are,
• Step 1: Enter the data in the worksheet namely A1:A5
• Step 2: Here to sum the values which are greater than 50,
apply the logical operator greater than (>). Select a new
cell namely B1 and enter the formula as =SUMIF
(A1:A5,">50"). A1:A5 is called range and ">50" is called
criteria.
SUMIF(A1:A5,”>5
0”)
