Your formula in the formula bar should look something like this, “=(STDEV(A1:A2))/(SQRT(COUNT(A1:A2)))”. (This formula would calculate the standard error of the mean for numbers in cells A1 to A2.) NOTE: We have calculated standard error of the mean by dividing the standard deviation of the mean by the square root of n. Given the formula that Excel uses for calculation of standard deviation of the mean, this gives the standard error of the mean after adjusting for a small sample size. This is usually the case in physiology experiments. The formula would be different with a very large sample size. I do not know why Excel still does not include a formula for calculating the standard error of the mean.

Join them; it only takes a minute: Sign up AVERAGEIF(range, criteria) formula that ignores errors in the data up vote 2 down vote favorite How do you specify the criteria if you want to average a range of numbers but want to ignore errors using error excel the AVERAGEIF() function? For example, given the data below: A1: 1 A2: #DIV/0! A3: #VALUE! A4: 5 A5: 0 I want to use the AVERAGEIF(range, criteria) formula something like this: =AVERAGEIF(a1:a5,and("<>#DIV/0!","<>#VALUE!")) or =AVERAGEIF(a1:a5,"<>Error()") Is there a way to specify a criteria to exclude errors? The answer I expect from the range is 2, the average of the three valid numbers (1, 5, & 0). I found, via searches, that there is a way to do this using an array formula or other excel average error functions, but I want to find out if there is a way to do this without an array formula or using another function. Basically, can you specify in the criteria to ignore errors. For example, I can ignore one error like this: AVERAGEIF(a1:a5,"<>#DIV/0!") But I don't know how to specify to ignore any errors. So my question is a criteria question. I'm using Microsoft Excel 2013. excel excel-formula share|improve this question edited May 14 '15 at 17:21 asked May 14 '15 at 16:08 ChrisGciso 8611734 Please try AVERAGEIFS - you can add 2 conditions there. The second approach could be a combination of AVERAGE, IF and ISERROR functions in an array formula. –BrakNicku May 14 '15 at 16:16 add a comment| 2 Answers 2 active oldest votes up vote 2 down vote accepted This will work as long as there aren't any negative numbers in your data: =AVERAGEIF(A1:A5,">=0") share|improve this answer answered May 14 '15 at 16:37 Kyle 40415 2 You can include negatives, if required, by using this version =AVERAGEIF(A1:A5,"<=9.99E+307") –barry houdini May 14 '15 at 16:56 @barry houdini This works great. Thank you –ChrisGciso May 14 '15 at 17:19 add a comment| up vote 1 down vote Providing you are using Excel 2010 and above the AGGREGATE function can be optioned to ignore all errors. =AGGREGATE(1, 6, A1:A5) Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â share|improve this answer answered May 14 '15 at 16:36 Jeeped 51.3k112856 add a comment| Your A
