Want to analyze data like a pro? Excel’s FILTER function has got you covered! 💪 In this blog post, we will dive deeper into the FILTER function.

What is the FILTER Function in Excel?

The FILTER function is an Excel function that allows you to extract a subset of data from a larger dataset based on specific criteria. This function can be used to filter data based on multiple conditions, such as a date range, text or numeric values, or even a combination of these.

Syntax:

=FILTER(array, include, [if_empty])

Array: The “array” argument refers to the range of cells or data you want to filter.

Include: The “include” argument is a logical expression that specifies the conditions that the data must meet to be included in the filtered output.

If_Empty: The “[if_empty]” argument is optional and specifies what should be returned if no data matches the specified conditions.

Example:

We have data that displays student records, including their ID, name, gender, payment type, and admission status

Filtering data manually is time-consuming, but we can simplify the process by using the Filter function.

Let’s apply a filter function in the cell to extract the student records who got admitted through the sports quota from the Payment column.

Input the expression into the function as depicted in the image above.
