Logical Functions in Excel

These functions include the Boolean operators and conditional tests.
The functions have been grouped into categories, to help you to find the function you need. Each function name links to a full description of the function, with examples of use.

Excel Logical Functions List

Boolean Operator Functions
Tests a number of user-defined conditions and returns TRUE if ALL of the conditions evaluate to TRUE, orFALSE otherwise
Tests a number of user-defined conditions and returns TRUE if ANY of the conditions evaluate to TRUE, orFALSE otherwise
Returns a logical Exclusive Or of all arguments (New in Excel 2013)
Returns a logical value that is the opposite of a user supplied logical value or expression
(ie. returns FALSE is the supplied argument is TRUE and returns TRUE if the supplied argument is FALSE)

Conditional Functions
Tests a user-defined condition and returns one result if the condition is TRUE, and another result if the condition is FALSE
Tests if an initial supplied value (or expression) returns an error, and if so, returns a supplied value; Otherwise the function returns the initial value. (New in Excel 2007)
Tests if an expression returns the #N/A error and if so, returns an alternative specified value; Otherwise the function returns the value of the supplied expression (New in Excel 2013)

Functions Returning Constant Values
Simply returns the logical value TRUE
Simply returns the logical value FALSE





In Microsoft Excel, when you use the logical functions AND and/or OR inside a SUM+IF statement to test a range for more than one condition, it may not work as expected. A nested IF statement provides this functionality; however, this article discusses a second, easier method that uses the following formulas.
For AND Conditions
This function gives result true only if all conditions are true.
I.e.
Condition 1= True
Condition 2= True
Condition 3=True
Result=True

But if any one condition is false then result is also false.
Condition 1= True
Condition 2= False
Condition 3=True
Result=False
IF (65>50 AND &100==56)
            False
Here,condition 1 is true and condition 2 is false , so, result is false
           
                                               
For OR Conditions
 This function gives result true even if anyone condition is true.
I.e.
Condition 1= True
Condition 2= True
Condition 3=True
Result=True
But if any one condition is false then result is also false.
Condition 1= True
Condition 2= False
Condition 3=True
Result=False
IF (65>50 AND &100==56)
            True
Here,condition 1 is true and condition 2 is false , so, result is True
                                               
Not Operator:
This operator gives opposite result.

If condition is true then result is false.
i.e. if (True)
            False
Thus, these logical functions are very useful when   some condition based statements are needed.
