Chapter: 5.4 Handling Operators Topic: 5.4.1 Handling Operators

Excel uses formulas containing operators to calculate and analyze worksheet data. There are four types of operators: arithmetic operators for basic math functions; comparison operators for logical comparisons that return True/False; a text operator that joins text with the ampersand; and reference operators that combine cell references. Formulas begin with an equal sign and can reference cell values and names to perform operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

 Comparison operators
 These are used to compare two values and produce a logical result either
True or False, 0 (Zero) or 1 (one). The following are the Logical operators.

 Text operator
 This operator joins two or more text values to produce a single combined text
value.
 Text formulas use the ampersand (&) operator to work with text cells, text
strings enclosed in quotation marks, and text function results.
