1 Lesson 11: Expanding Skills with Functions and Objects

2 Outline Use INT, ROUND, and TRUNC functions Use the FV financial function Insert hyperlinks into the document Create nested functions Use Lookup functions

3 Using the INT Function The INT function, inside of the Calc and Trig category, shows the non decimal portion of a value. INT is short for “integer” The INT function truncates or “cuts off” all digits after the decimal point

4 Using the INT Function

5 Using the ROUND Function ROUND adjusts a value of a specified digit. The value is made larger or smaller, depending on the digit being rounded. ROUND has two arguments: The value/cell to be rounded The number of digits used for rounding

6 Use TRUNC function The TRUNC function truncates all digits after a specified number of digits With this function, you can specify that some decimal places be maintained, unlike with the INT function

7 Using the FV function The FV (future value) function can be used to determine the value of a savings plan at some point in the future This function assumes that periodic, constant payments are made and the interest rate is fixed

8 Creating Hyperlinks ● A hyperlink is a clickable object or text that, when clicked: ○ Displays another file ○ Opens another program ○ Shows a web page ○ Displays an e-mail address ● To create a hyperlink: ○ Click the Hyperlink button on the Insert command tab ○ Right-click the cell and choose Hyperlink from the shortcut menu ○ Press [Ctrl]+[K]

9 Working with Nested Functions ● A Nested Function is a function within another function ● The argument for the main function is another function ● Use a combination of the Function Arguments Dialogue Box, the formula bar, and the Name Box to build nested functions

10 Working with Nested Functions

11 Example of a Nested Function =IF(SUM(B2:B4)>100,Average(F2:F4),0 =IF(SUM(B2:B4)>100 Logical_test AVERAGE(F2:F4) Value_if_true 0 Value_if_false

12 Working with Nested Functions

13 Using Lookup Functions ● Lookup functions displays a result by scanning columns or rows in a lookup table ● A lookup table is a cell range ● VLOOKUP scans columns in a lookup table ● HLOOKUP scans rows in a lookup table ● A lookup table can be vertical or horizontal

14 Using VLOOKUP The VLOOKUP is looking for a match in the TCodes range (on a different sheet) for the contents of the Code column (I4.) It checks the second column in TCodes to find the diagnosis name to be shown in cell J4 (Astigmatism)

15 Using HLOOKUP The HLOOKUP function is looking for a match in the TDiscounts range (on a different sheet) for the contents of the Discount row. It checks the second row in TDiscounts to find the discount percent to be shown in cell D6.
