• Min – Finds the smallest number in a given range
• =min(a1:a20) or =min(a1:b20) or =min(a1:a20,c1:c20)
– Return highest or lowest, values from an argument list• Argument list may include cell references, cell ranges,
values, functions, or formulas• Cells that are empty or contain text are not included

Other functions ***• These functions are written the same way as the Sum function – they follow
the same exact rules.
=median(range) Example =median(a1:a20)Returns median of the range
=stdev(range) Example =stdev(a1:a20)Returns the Standard Deviation of the Range
