Overview. For sensors like the VEX Ultrasonic sensor that return a range of values, we often simply want to check if the returned value is more than, equal to, or less than some value called a threshold. For example say that we have the sensor set up and are driving around, but we need to stay at least 5 inches (127 mm) away from any obstacles.
How do I tell excel to treat a  in an excel formula as a ? :) Excel reads quotation marks as signifying text inside, but my text field requires a  to be included in it as well, so I need to somehow tell Excel that the  is part of the text field within the two s :p. Does that make sense? Mike.
Use =VARA()#) while you are basing your calculation on the sample and you want Excel to treat logical values as TRUE=1, FALSE=0 and to interpret text values as numbers. Note: this formula will result in an error if the range of cells you select contains text that cannot be interpreted as a phone number. 3. Use =VARP()#)when you will be basing your calculation to the entire population and you want Excel to ignore logical (TRUE/FALSE) values and text. 4.
