<h1>MINIFS Function</h1>
|
|
<p>The <b>MINIFS</b> function is one of the statistical functions. It is used to return the minimum value among cells specified by a given set of conditions or criteria.</p>
|
|
<p>The <b>MINIFS</b> function syntax is:</p>
|
|
<p style="text-indent: 150px;"><b><em>MINIFS(min_range, criteria_range1, criteria1 [, criteria_range2, criteria2], ...)</em></b></p>
|
|
<p style="text-indent: 50px;"><b><em>min_range</em></b> is the range of cells in which the minimum will be determined.</p>
|
|
<p style="text-indent: 50px;"><b><em>criteria_range1</em></b> is the first selected range of cells to apply the <em>criteria1</em> to.</p>
|
|
<p style="text-indent: 50px;"><b><em>criteria1</em></b> is the first condition that must be met. It is applied to the <em>criteria_range1</em> and used to determine which cells in the <em>min_range</em> will be evaluated as minimum. It can be a value entered manually or included into the cell you make reference to.</p>
|
|
<p style="text-indent: 50px;"><b><em>criteria_range2, criteria2, ...</em></b> are additional ranges of cells and their corresponding criteria. These arguments are optional.</p>
|
|
<p class="note"><b>Note:</b> you can use wildcard characters when specifying criteria. The question mark "?" can replace any single character and the asterisk "*" can be used instead of any number of characters.</p>
|
|
