<h1>RANK.EQ Function</h1>
<p>The <b>RANK.EQ</b> function is one of the statistical functions. It is used to return the rank of a number in a list of numbers. The rank of a number is its size relative to other values in a list (if you were to sort the list, the rank of the number would be its position). If more than one value has the same rank, the top rank of that set of values is returned.</p>
<p>The <b>RANK.EQ</b> function syntax is:</p>
<p style="text-indent: 150px;"><b><em>RANK.EQ(number, ref[, order])</em></b></p>
<p><em>where</em></p>
<p style="text-indent: 50px;"><b><em>number</em></b> is the value you want to find the rank for.</p>
<p style="text-indent: 50px;"><b><em>ref</em></b> is the selected range of cells containing the specified <b><em>number</em></b>.</p>
<p style="text-indent: 50px;"><b><em>order</em></b> is the numeric value that specifyes how to order the <b><em>ref</em></b> array. It is an optional argument. If it is 0 or omitted, the function ranks <b><em>number</em></b> as if <b><em>ref</em></b> were a list sorted in descending order. Аny other numeric value is treated as the value 1 and the function ranks <b><em>number</em></b> as if <b><em>ref</em></b> were a list sorted in ascending order.</p>
