Google doesn't understand <> so that failed thus asking here.
What does '<>' (less than followed by greater than) mean in Excel? For example:
=SUMPRODUCT((E37:N37>0)*(E37:N37<>"")*(E37:N37))
What's happening here?

It means "not equal to" (as in, the values in cells E37-N37 are not equal to "", or in other words, they are not empty.)

I am new to coding and learning as i type this and I was given the small task by my boss to create a bash script that multiplies any number you input by 10. But, if you enter "69" its supposed to echo "lol" instead of giving a number. Any help please!

I want to create range x..y where x > y. For eg 5..-10.
5..-10 produces empty range https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/ops/struct.Range.html
I created this questions to share my solution and potentially someone will come with better idea.
We can create valid range y..x (since x > y) and then reverse it
(y..x).rev()
this will produce desired range

I have an excel file where I am looking to get the difference between 2 columns only if they are not blank and there is not an 'x' in the second column - I have this formula:
=IF(OR(Q17="",R17="",R17="x",),"",Q17-R17)
In Q17 I have 290 and in R17 I have 290 (Both formatted as numbers)
for some reason the value I am getting in the cell (when formatted as a number is 0.00) but when changed to general or scientific is 5.6843418860808E-14. it is driving me crazy because I have looked at everything and nothing is working. I cannot find what the issue is. Has anyone had any similar issues?
If i change the formula to Q17-R17 it produces the correct value of 0 though..
Hopefully this is okay but here is sample data where I am seeign the issue - its 3 rows all with the same scenario (i have tried reformatting the cells multiple times but nothing seems to work)

Perhaps use the CLEAN function to remove non-printable characters, which seems to be your problem.
=IF(OR(Q17="",R17="",R17="x",),"",CLEAN(Q17)-CLEAN(R17))

Is the a similar command within Excel that performs the same as the 'floor' command within MATLAB [duplicate]

The 'floor' command in MATLAB is defined as "Round towards minus infinity.
floor(X) rounds the elements of X to the nearest integers
towards minus infinity."
Is there a similar command within Excel, or does anyone know how to perform the same action within Excel?
yes, you can use =INT(A1) formula. It rounds a number (from A1 cell) down to the nearest integer. Here is documentation.

Excel: How to roundup a number to the closest ten2? [duplicate]

I made this question a few hours ago, but I wasn't very specific:
How to roundup a number to the closest ten?
Probably the title is not very suggestive. Let me explain you with an
example. I have:
12345.6
2345.1
12345.00000001
I want those numbers to be roundup to 12350. How can I do this? If
possible, I would rather use formulas instead of VBA.
This is the original question, but at the same time, I want the same result for:
12340.0001 to be modified in 12350. Somehow I don't know if this is still a round operation. :)
I'm sorry for duplicating the question, but posting a comment at the first question, didn't draw enough attention. :)
Divide by 10, round with the regular function (Round x,0) and multiply by 10 again...
=(ROUND(E7/10;0)*10)
