Usage

Returns the information seeked for the reference cell. The

information type can be address,col,row,content of the
reference,filename,format

Returns the information seeked on the current operating

environment.
Boolean functions that return true or false based on the
argument.

Usage
Returns the current date
Returns the serial number of the given date
Converts a string into date
Returns the component of the date
Returns the month component of the date
Returns the day component of the date

Returns the number corresponding to the day of the date

Returns the week number when the date falls

Returns current date and time

Convert a value to its nearest integer portion
Truncates the number to given number of decimal places
Returns the remainder

Returns the random number >=0 and <1.

Generates number between bottom and top

Calculates median
Calculates mode
To find the kth largest number in the array
To find the kth smallest number in the array
To find the variance
To get the standard deviation
Predicts the new y value for the new x value by understanding
the trend being followed by the known x and y values
To construct a frequency distribution as per the upper bounds
of the bins. This is the array function and hence can be
executed by pressing cntrl+shift+enter

e through Analysis Toolpack which is available as Add-in in Excel

Analysis toolpack
A simple analysis of variance. It tests the hypothesis that the
means from several samples are equal
An extension of the single factor annova to include more than
one sample for each group of data
A two factor annova that does'nt include more than one
sampling per group
Returns the correlation coefficient between two sets of data
Generates a report showing various statistics for a set of data
Performs two sample F-test to compare two population
variance

Calculates individual and cummulative frequencies for a range

of data and set of data bins. It is similar to frequency()
Fills a range with independent random numbers
Performs linear regression analysis that fits the line through a
set of values using the least sqauares method
Creates a sample from a population by treating the input range
as a population
Perfrom a t-test to find whether a sample's means are distinct.
Performe two sample z-test for means with known variance
