What is the significance of the ‘OF’ in X=SUM (OF a1-a4,
a6, a9);?

Answer Posted / shraddha ganoo

When we give OF it will consider the range. i.e from a1 to
a4 and a6 and a9, if we omit OF word then the SUM function
will consider the hyphen sign (-) between a1 and a4 as a
minus sign and perform operations accordingly.
