=AND()=NOT()=OR()
=IF()=IFS()=IFERROR()


=AND()

This function combine multiple conditions if all conditions are true then it returns true when one of the condition is false it returns false 

Truth Table

AB=AND(A,B)
TTTrue
TFFalse
FTFalse
FFFalse

Syntax:    =AND(condition1, condition2.....)

Ex-           =AND(60>50, 50=53)            Output:     False



=OR()

In this case if any one of the condition is true then it returns true if all the conditions are false it returns false.

Truth Table

AB=OR(A,B)
TTTrue
TFTrue
FTTrue
FFFalse

Syntax:    =OR(condition1, condition2.....)

Ex-           =OR(60>50, 50=53)            Output:     True



=NOT()

Ex-           =NOT(60 > 50)            Output:     False


=IF()

Ex:           If any number is less than 40 add 10 marks extra



=IFS()

This function evaluates one or more conditions and returns a value upon evaluating a true condition.

Syntax:     =IFS(logical test1, value if true1, ......)
