What does this function do?

This function performs negation of the input logical value.

It can also be said differently – the function checks the truth value of an expression. If the input value or calculation is false, the function result is TRUE, and vice versa.

Syntax

=NOT(Logical)

Formatting

Requirements for input values are similar to the AND and OR functions.

The difference may be in the result format – AND and OR return a single value. Negation with the NOT function is performed with each of its elements and returns a similar array.

Any numbers other than zero are interpreted as TRUE, zero – as FALSE.

Any text values, except “FALSE”, “TRUE” in text format, return a #VALUE! error.

Other logical functions

IF, AND, OR
