Numbers and totals
Arithmetic and rounding; totals, averages and counts of several values; totals of subitems and mirror columns; running totals; shares of a group or a board.
Arithmetic and rounding
| Function | Gives | Example |
|---|---|---|
ROUND(n, decimals) |
Rounded to the nearest | ROUND(2.345, 2) → 2.35 |
ROUNDUP(n, decimals) / ROUNDDOWN(n, decimals) |
Rounded up / down | ROUNDUP(2.301, 1) → 2.4 |
MROUND(n, multiple) |
To the nearest multiple | MROUND(17, 5) → 15 |
CEILING(n, multiple) / FLOOR(n, multiple) |
Up / down to a multiple | CEILING({item's Hours}, 0.25) → quarter hours |
INT(n) |
The whole part (down) | INT(7.9) → 7 |
ABS(n) |
Without sign | ABS(-4) → 4 |
MOD(n, divisor) |
The remainder | MOD(17, 5) → 2 |
POWER(n, exponent), SQRT(n), LOG(n, [base]), PI() |
Powers, roots, logarithms | SQRT(16) → 4 |
RAND(), RANDBETWEEN(low, high) |
A random number | RANDBETWEEN(1000, 9999) |
A number with a decimal comma, such as "3,5" in a Text column, is text: VALUE(SUBSTITUTE({item's Amount}, ",", ".")) turns it into 3.5.
Totals of several values
These work on numbers, columns and lists, mixed:
| Function | Gives |
|---|---|
SUM(…) |
The total |
AVERAGE(…), MEDIAN(…) |
The mean, the middle value |
MIN(…), MAX(…) |
The smallest, the largest |
COUNT(…) |
How many numbers |
COUNTA(…) |
How many values that aren’t empty |
PRODUCT(…) |
All multiplied |
SUMPRODUCT(list1, list2) |
Items multiplied in pairs, then added: quantities × prices |
=SUM({item's Cost 1}, {item's Cost 2}, {item's Cost 3})
=MAX({item's Q1}, {item's Q2}, {item's Q3}, {item's Q4})
Several values in one column
A Mirror column, a Dropdown or the Subitems column holds several values. These functions read them, whatever separates them:
| Function | Gives |
|---|---|
MONDAY.NUMBER.SUM(column), .AVG, .MIN, .MAX |
Total, average, smallest, largest of the numbers |
MONDAY.GENERAL.COUNT(column) |
How many values |
MONDAY.DATE.MIN(column), MONDAY.DATE.MAX(column) |
The earliest, the latest date |
MONDAY.DATE.TIMELINE(column) |
From the earliest to the latest date, ready for a Timeline column |
MONDAY.DURATION.SUM(column), .AVG, .MIN, .MAX |
Of Time tracking values, as HH:MM:SS |
MONDAY.TIMELINE.SUM(column) |
Days covered by several timelines |
SUBITEMS.SUM, MIRROR.SUM and the like are other names for the same functions. They need a Pro plan or higher.
=MONDAY.NUMBER.SUM({item's Subitems cost}) → the cost of all subitems, from a Mirror of their Cost
In the new recipes the same values can also be handled as a list: SUM(VALUE(LIST.SPLIT({item's Subitems cost}))).
Running totals new recipes
SCAN(start, list, LAMBDA(total, x, calculation)) gives every step of a total: the running balance of a list of movements.
=SCAN(0, VALUE(LIST.SPLIT({item's Movements})), LAMBDA(balance, x, balance + x))
With 10, -3, 5 it gives 10, 7, 12. REDUCE(start, list, LAMBDA(total, x, calculation)) gives only the final result.
Compared with the group or the board new recipes
MONDAY.GROUP.COLUMN("Cost") and MONDAY.BOARD.COLUMN("Cost") give the Cost of every item of the group or of the board, so an item can be compared with the others:
=ROUND({item's Cost} / SUM(MONDAY.GROUP.COLUMN("Cost")), 4) → the item's share of the group's cost
=XMATCH({item's Score}, SORT(MONDAY.BOARD.COLUMN("Score"), 1, -1)) → the item's rank on the board (1 = highest)
=SUM(MONDAY.BOARD.COLUMN("Cost")) - {item's Cost} → the cost of all the other items
When one item’s Cost changes, every item’s share changes too. To keep them all up to date, use the recalculate block: see monday items, people and boards.
