The cell addresses in the copied calculation
may change.
Any changes are made according to the
direction and distance of the destination cell
from the original source cell.

If it’s copied vertically, do you want the row
references to change? If it’s copied
horizontally, do you want the column
references to change?

Will you copy this function?
If so, which direction: vertical or horizontal?
If you copy vertically, Excel will automatically
change all relative row references. Do you want
those row references to change?

IF function displays one of two possible values
depending on the outcome of a logical test
Logical Test compares two things
If the Logical Test equates to TRUE, the cell is
filled with the True Value.
If the Logical Test equates to FALSE, the cell is
filled with the False Value.

If a course requires more than 3 hours of
study time per week, we will label it HARD.
Three or less hours of study is labeled EASY.
