The following examples show you how to create multi-cell and single-cell array formulas. Where possible, we’ve included examples with some of the dynamic array functions, as well as existing array formulas entered as both dynamic and legacy arrays.
Excel formulas that return a set of values, also known as an array, return these values to neighboring cells. This behavior is called spilling. Formulas that can return arrays of variable size are called dynamic array formulas.
Excel provides two types of array formulas: Array formulas that perform several calculations to generate a single result and array formulas that calculate multiple results. Some worksheet functions return arrays of values, or require an array of values as an argument.
Returns a calculated array of a specified row and column size, by applying a LAMBDA. Syntax =MAKEARRAY(rows, cols, lambda(row, col)) The MAKEARRAY function syntax has the following arguments and parameters: rows The number of rows in the array. Must be greater than zero.
Excel functions that return ranges or arrays. In September, 2018 we announced that Dynamic Array support would be coming to Excel. This allows formulas to spill across multiple cells if the formula returns multi-cell ranges or arrays.
Worksheet functions are categorized by their functionality. Click a category to browse its functions. Or press Ctrl+F to find a function by typing the first few letters or a descriptive word. To get detailed information about a function, click its name in the first column.
Use this form of LOOKUP when the values that you want to match are in the first row or column of the array. Syntax. LOOKUP(lookup_value, array) The LOOKUP function array form syntax has these arguments: lookup_value Required. A value that LOOKUP searches for in an array.
Create array formulas, often called Ctrl+Shift+Enter or CSE formulas, to perform calculations that generate single or multiple results. Watch this video to learn more. Why use array formulas?
The FILTER function filters an array based on a Boolean (True/False) array. =FILTER(array,include,[if_empty])
The INDEX function returns a value or the reference to a value from within a table or range. There are two ways to use the INDEX function: If you want to return the value of a specified cell or array of cells, see Array form. If you want to return a reference to specified cells, see Reference form.
