AVERAGE()
  • Parameters are values or range of cells containing values.
  • AVERAGE() returns the average (arithmetic mean) of all the numbers in a column.

NOTE:
  • This function takes the specified column as an argument and finds the average of the values in that column.
  • Does not support Logical and Text Values.
  • Cells with the value zero are included.
  • If Data type is Integer/ Numeric/ Decimal, Average skip the null value.

AVERAGE(A2:A5) = 2.5
AVERAGE(B2:B5) = 1333.33


AVERAGEA()
  • AVERAGEA() returns the average (arithmetic mean) of the values in a column. Handles text and non-numeric values.

NOTE:

The AVERAGEA function takes a column and averages the numbers, but also handles non-numeric data types according to the following rules:

  • It support Logical values.
  • Logical value TRUE counts as 1 & FALSE counts as 0.
  • Values that contain non-numeric text count as 0.
  • Empty text (" ") counts as 0.

AVERAGEA(A2:A5) = 2.5
AVERAGEA(B2:B5) = 1333.33
AVERAGEA(D2:D5) = 0.5


AVERAGEX()
  • AVERAGEX() calculates the average (arithmetic mean) of a set of expressions evaluated over a table.

NOTE:

The AVERAGEX function takes a column and averages the numbers, but also handles non-numeric data types according to the following rules:

  • The function takes a table as its first argument, and an expression as the second argument.
  • The AVERAGEX function enables you to evaluate expressions for each row of a table, and then take the resulting set of values and calculate its arithmetic mean.
  • You cannot include non-numeric or null cells. Both the table and expression arguments are required.
  • When there are no rows to aggregate, the function returns a blank. When there are rows, but none of them meet the specified criteria, then the function returns 0.
  • Does not support Logical/ boolean values.

AVERAGEX(A2:A5) = 2.5
