Hey, I'm extremely new to the website and a true beginner at Excel.
I'm studying Excel and its more complex formulas and my way of studying it is to take complex formulas and decompose them step by step to see how the results are formed.
That said, I seem to be having some problem with something that should be extremely simple.
I have the following set:
<tbody>
</tbody>
The example above is not wrong in any value. If I use the exact same formula in two different rows, the results vary.
* If I change the value of the formula in C3 to (B3:B4<B2) - following Excel's pattern - it doesn't show an error.
* If I copy and paste the formula from C2 to D2, it doesn't show an error.
I just wanted to confirm that this is something with Excel and reproducible to others.
The goal with this was to understand the usage of the "--" (double negative) to transform TRUE and FALSE values into 1 and 0.

A | B | C | D | |
1 | value being compared | 11 | ||
2 | value 1 | 11 | =(B2:B3<=B1) | TRUE |
3 | value 2 | 11 | =(B2:B3<=B1) | #ERROR |
