Summary

Functions are the bedrock of reports and dashboard creation in Excel. In this chapter, we covered the must-know Excel functions in Excel versions up until Excel 2019. This has laid an important foundation that we will build on in Chapter 12, Best Practices for Real-World Dashboard Building.

You are now knowledgeable about important math functions, logical functions, text manipulation functions, and lookup functions in Legacy Excel. In the next chapter, we will cover a new class of functions that are available in Excel 365: dynamic array functions and lambda functions. They make what used to require macros and complex processes possible in Excel. You will find them very interesting and useful in creating a modern interactive dashboard.
