Syntax
=VAR.S(number1, [number2], ...)Arguments
| Argument | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
number1 | Required | A number, cell or range |
number2 | Optional | More numbers or ranges |
How to use VAR.S
VAR.S takes 1 required argument and 1 optional argument, and accepts more values in the same pattern. Type =VAR.S( in a cell and SheetsBat shows the arguments as you go. Optional arguments are shown in square brackets; leave them out to use their default.
