MAX
Returns the maximum of a list of arguments, ignoring text entries.
Syntax:
MAX(number1; number2; ... number30)
- number1 to number30 are up to 30 numbers or ranges containing numbers.
Example:
MAX(2; 6; 4)
- returns 6, the largest value in the list.
MAX(B1:B3)
- where cells B1, B2, B3 contain 1.1, 2.2, and apple returns 2.2.
Issues:
- Calc assumes that logical values are 1 (TRUE) and 0 (FALSE). Excel ignores logical values.
