When working with large tables, it is often necessary to make their search easier.

They can be used to identify the row and column in which the cell is located, count the rows or columns, determine the type of value that the cell contains … By themselves, these functions are seldom used. In combination with other functions, in conditional formatting, and especially with data validation, they can be irreplaceable.
