Excel's wide range of functions can simplify your data analysis and make complex calculations a breeze. In this tutorial, we'll break down three incredibly useful functions: INT, ABS, and SQRT.

INT Function

The INT function rounds down a number to the nearest integer, effectively "cutting off" any decimal places.

Here's how to use it:

1. Start your formula with =INT(
2. Input the cell reference or number you want to round down.
3. Close the parenthesis ) and press Enter.

For example, if you want to round down the number in cell G1, you would use =INT(G1)

ABS Function

The ABS function returns the absolute value of a number, converting negative numbers into positive ones.

Here's how to use it:

1. Begin your formula with =ABS(
2. Enter the cell reference or number you want to find the absolute value for.
3. Close the parenthesis ) and hit Enter.

For instance, to get the absolute value of the number in cell H1, your formula would be =ABS(H1)

SQRT Function

The SQRT function computes the square root of a specified number.

Here's how to use it:

1. Start your formula with =SQRT(
2. Input the cell reference or number you want to find the square root of.
3. Close the parenthesis ) and press Enter.

For example, to calculate the square root of the number in cell I1, you would use =SQRT(I1)
