    I don't have a favorite function. This channel is now my favorite source on how to use Excel functions.
    My hope for the new year is Microsoft will abandon their poorly written help section and it with links to Ms Gharani's video.

    I have been following this channel for about 2yrs now. I have learned so much in that time frame and have become one of the top 3 users of excel in my office. I work in the finance department of a casino, and have been redoing all the workbooks to up date them. The filter function has become my #1 function to use. When i started my position 2 1/2 yrs ago i couldn't even use a sumifs. So Leilia, thank you so much for making these videos, you do a wonderful job explaining how the functions work.

  • @christiantorres3786
    @christiantorres3786 4 года назад +11

    I love the fact that these are mostly dynamic ranges. Solves the issue of having to drag down formulas or use a pivot table to automatically update results when new data is introduced. My favorite function would have to be the "Unique" function because it helps isolate unique combinations so much better than manual filtering or using "remove duplicates" which requires modifying original table or copying and pasting a new range that can then be trimmed down.

    This video is the gift that keeps on giving ❤ Thx Leila & team!!!
    I've used it several times already as a reference for practical use of the new formulas, and did so again today. This time helping out a friend turning what would be a manual process taking hours manually filtering, sorting and adding values from a csv dump containing over 20K rows of billing data, to a simple selection via drop-down.
    Took just 10mins to do the formulas using an embedded FILTER inside SORT twice, also wrapped FILTER with SUM using the values from an adjacent UNIQUE array to provide totals on the fly - so easy! In the past this would be a much longer process, maybe with some macros or VBA, but no need for that any more and so much quicker to produce - the guy thinks I'm a genius haha.
    Although I will admit it did take me another hour to make it look good lol

    The combination of these new arrays functions is actually what amazes me : Sorting a filtered unique list is now so easy. !

    Question: can the 'hash' feature also be used in the "Sort" function to make the "Sort" function truly dynamic?
    Not sure which is my favorite yet … Unique and Sequence are new to me but not quite sure of their usefulness just yet (possibly) … but Filter is a strong favorite because it is so powerful.
