GTE function

PRO

The GTE function in Jspreadsheet Formulas Pro is a comparison tool that helps you check if one value is greater than or equal to another. You simply provide two values, and it will return a boolean result. If the first value is indeed greater than or equal to the second, it will return true; otherwise, it will return false. This function is very useful for making comparisons and decisions in your spreadsheet calculations.

Documentation

Determines whether the first value is greater than or equal to the second.

Syntax

GTE(value1, value2)

Parameter	Description
`value1`	The first value to compare.
`value2`	The second value to compare.

Behavior

The GTE function is used to compare two numerical values and return a boolean result. The function returns TRUE if the first number is greater than or equal to the second number, and FALSE if the first number is less than the second number.

Empty cells: When one or both of the cells being compared are empty, the function treats them as zeros.
Text: If one or both arguments contain text that cannot be converted to numbers, the function returns #VALUE!.
Booleans: Boolean values are automatically converted to numbers: TRUE = 1, FALSE = 0.
Errors: If either of the cells being compared contains an error, the GTE function will also return an error.

Common Errors

Error	Description
#VALUE!	Occurs when one or both of the arguments are text that cannot be translated into numbers.

Best practices

Always ensure that the cells being compared using the GTE function contain numerical values to avoid errors.

Use the GTE function with caution when comparing boolean values, as they are treated as 1 (TRUE) and 0 (FALSE).

Avoid using GTE function where the second argument can be zero and the first is not, as this can lead to a #DIV/0! error.

Check if your spreadsheet program supports the GTE function to prevent a #NAME? error.

Usage

A few examples using the GTE function.

// Comparing numbers
GTE(5, 5)        // TRUE
GTE(10, 5)       // TRUE
GTE(5, 10)       // FALSE

// Comparing with boolean values (TRUE = 1, FALSE = 0)
GTE(TRUE, FALSE) // TRUE
GTE(FALSE, TRUE) // FALSE

// Comparing with empty cells (empty = 0)
GTE(0, "")       // TRUE
GTE("", "")      // TRUE

// Comparing dates (later date is greater)
GTE(DATE(2024,5,10), DATE(2024,5,1)) // TRUE
