DATA FILTERING Data Filtering is a strong feature of MS-Excel. It allows us to find and work with selected data in quick and easy method. It does not rearrange data un- like Sorting. It hides the unnecessary row and column temporarily. Specially, it blocks or hide the data that yo don't want to see. The filtered data range dis- plays only those rows/columns that meet the condition or criteria you specify. There are two commands for filtering data range: a. Filter (for simple criteria) b. Advance Filter (for complex criteria with multiple condition) We discuss the simple Filter in this chapter. To perform the simple filter, follow the following steps: Steps to Follow : Step-1 : Prepare a worksheet as given. Smart Computer Science Book-8 131
Step-2 : Select the data range of A1:E14 Step-3 : On the Data tab. In the 'Sort & Filter' group, click 'Filter' option. or Click the HOME tab. In the Editing Group, click the Sort & Filter and select Filter option in the drop down list. Drop-down menu arrows will appears next to each column heading. Step-4 : Click the drop down arrow next to desire column on which you fil- tered data. Here, it is clicked drop down arrow next to the Section column heading. You get the varieties of menu option. Step-5 : Click the Select All to clear all the check boxes, and click the check box next to desire data value. Here, it is selected 'A' Step-6 : Click OK. Step-7 : Now, you get the data sub set of only 'A' section. 132 Advance Features in Ms-Excel
Now, you get the following subset of filtered data. Trick & TIPS • If you have make any modification in the data, click Reapply to filter the new data. • To remove all the filters, click again Filters button. To apply Filter in multiple column Filters are cumulative, which means you can apply multiple filters to help nar- row down your results. In this example, we've already filtered our worksheet to show the list of only section 'A', and we'd like to narrow it down further to only show the 8, 9 and 10 class, lets follow the following steps: Steps to follow: Step-1 : Click the drop-down arrow for the column Class. Step-2 : The Filter menu will appear. Step-3 : Click the Select All to clear all the check boxes, and click the check box next to desire data value. Here, it is selected '8',9 & 10 Smart Computer Science Book-8 133
Step-4 : Now, click Ok button. You get the following sub set of filtered data Custom Filtering MS-Excel supports AutoFilter to filter data based on certain specific condi- tions which is called custom filtering. For example: if you are willing to list the those data having more than num- ber of girls 18, in this case, you have to use Custom Filtering: To solve this problem, do the following: Steps to Follow: Step-1 : Select the data range of A1:E14 Step-2 : On the Data tab. In the 'Sort & Filter' group, click 'Filter' option. 134 Advance Features in Ms-Excel

Step-6 : Define the parameters as given in the dialog box. Step-7 : Click the Ok button. You get the following sub set of data list. Highest or Lowest Values Filtering: Filtering features allows to list the highest or lowest values from the large set of data. For example, if you want to display top 3 data set values from the No. of Girls column of your worksheet, do the following: Steps to Follow : Step-1 : Click any cell having number data of the worksheet. Step-2 : Click the DATA tab, In the Sort & Filter group, click the Filter op- tion. Step-3 : Click the drop down button next to the any column. Step-4 : Point to the Number Filters, then click the Top 10 option from the sub menu. The Top 10 AutoFilter dialog box is displayed. Step-5 : Type 3 in place of 10. Step-6 : Click the Ok button. Now, your first top three values of no. of girls column records are displayed as given: 136 Advance Features in Ms-Excel
Filtering by Searching Data Sometimes, such types of case may come, where you have to search specific value out of thousands of row of data, in such a case you have to use the technique of Filtering by Searching Data. For example: If you want to display list of rows having section 'A' using the Filtering by Searching Data, do the following : Steps to Follow : Step-1 : Click any cell of the worksheet. Step-2 : Click the DATA tab. in the Sort & Filter group, click the Filter op- tion. Step-3 : Click the drop down button next to the Section column. Step-4 : In the AutoFilter drop-down menu of Section column, Type A in the Search box. Smart Computer Science Book-8 137
Step-5 : Click Ok. Now, you get the following sub set of data. 138 Advance Features in Ms-Excel

IF( ) FUNCTION The IF function can perform a logical test and return one value for a TRUE result, and another for a FALSE result. It is a built-in function in Excel that is categorized as a Logical Function. For example: to \"pass\" scores above 70: =IF(A1>70,\"Pass\",\"Fail\"). More than one condition can be tested by nesting IF functions. The IF function can be combined with logical functions like AND and OR. Syntax of single IF : IF(logical_test, value_if_true, value_if_false) Example: = IF(D2>= 100, \"OK\", \"NOT OK\") = IF(D3 >=100, \"OK\", \"NOT OK\") = IF(D4>= 100, \"OK\", \"NOT OK\") • Here, condition is matched in D2 and D3, result is OK, where condition is not matched in D4, result is NOT OK. In this way IF test the data and give the out- come. Syntax of Nested IF : IF(logical_test, value_if_true, IF(logical_test, value_if_true, IF(logical_test, value_if_true, ..............., value_if_false))) Example: =IF(A2<40,\"Grade-D\",IF(A2<50,\"Grade-C\",IF(A2<80,\"Grade-B\",\"Grade- A\"))) 140 Advance Features in Ms-Excel
• Here, C2 is matched, it has given the result Grade D. In this way, according to the matched the test value, result is displayed. Combining the IF function with other LOGICAL Functions Quite often, you will need to specify more complex conditions when writing your formula in Excel. You can combine the IF function with other logical func- tions such as AND, OR, NOT, etc. Let's explore this further. AND function The IF function can be combined with the AND function to allow you to test for multiple conditions. When using the AND function, all conditions within the AND function must be TRUE for the condition to be met. This comes in very handy in Excel formulas. Step-1 : Select cell D2 and enter the following formula. =IF(AND(A2>10, B2>5), \"Correct\", \"Incorrect\") =IF(AND(A3>10, B3>5), \"Correct\", \"Incorrect\") • In the first case, it returns FALSE because the test value in cell B2 is not higher than 5. As a result the IF function returns Incorrect. • In the first case, it returns TRUE because the value in both cell A3 and B3 are higher than the 7 and 5 and . As a result the IF function returns correct. Smart Computer Science Book-8 141
OR Function The OR function returns TRUE if any of the condition is TRUE and returns FALSE if all conditions are false. Step-1 : Select cell E2 and enter the following formula. =IF(OR(A2>10, B2>5), \"Correct\", \"Incorrect\") =IF(OR(A3>10, B3>5), \"Correct\", \"Incorrect\") =IF(OR(A4>10, B4>5), \"Correct\", \"Incorrect\") • In the firs case, the OR function returns TRUE because the value in cell A2 is higher than 10. As a result the IF function returns Correct. • In the firs case, the OR function returns TRUE because the value in cell A3 and B3 both are higher than 10. As a result the IF function returns Correct. • In the third case the OR function returns FALSE because the value in cell A4 and B4 both are not higher than 10. As a result the IF function returns Incorrect. NOT Function The NOT function returns TRUE if the condition is FALSE and returns FALSE if condition is TRUE. Step-1 : Select cell D2 and enter the following formula. =IF(NOT(B2>10), \"Correct\", \"Incorrect\") =IF(NOT(B3>10), \"Correct\", \"Incorrect\") • In the first case, the NOT function returns FALSE because the value in cell B2 is below 10. As a result the IF function returns 'Correct'. 142 Advance Features in Ms-Excel
• In the second case, the NOT function returns TRUE because the value in cell B2 is above 10. As a result the IF function returns 'Correct'. Lab Activities 1. The Computer Science teacher of Star Shining School has as- signed the task to the students to use the IF () function in fol- lowing worksheet to perform the given tasks. a. Find the result, if percentage is above 40 'Pass\", otherwise failed. b. Find the grade in the basis of following condition. Percentage Grade <40 D <50 C <80 B <100 A a Smart Computer Science Book-8 143
