Tip #4: Five important statistical functions, and when to use them.

Zoho Sheet supports a few handy variations of the average function as well. =TRIMMEAN (number_list, fraction) Say, for instance, you want the sample mean. However, you want to exclude the maximum and minimum values

Importrange Essential But not in Zoho
Any small business that runs its business with spreadsheets will always use importrange to consolidate data. Why has Zoho in the 4 years since this request was posted not included this at all?

Being a competitor to Google simply means that you have to work on this. This is one of the reasons why businesses use Google Platform - to

Column Filters are not Filtering data accurately
This afternoon ( 28th March 2020 ) column filtering has been unreliable. When I select a filter it will include rows which do not match the filter criteria. This raises two issues.

Idea : Ability to mark certain rows as title rows (heading1, heading2 et al) just like in MS Word
Namaskaram. Sheet remains close to our heart as one of the most popular go-to apps for anything under the sun! ☀️Having said that, it's useful to have the ability to mark certain rows as say 'Heading 1' rows, 'Heading 2' rows and so on, just like we do in Word/Zoho Writer or any document editing tool for that matter. This would help organise Sheet content much better. Also there could be allied features like, say, when I scroll, the heading rows could freeze on the top when the corresponding content

Indent?
How can we indent in a cell? Simply prepending spaces does not work, as they're stripped, and that isn't the right answer anyway.
