# Functions

## Overview

[**Models**](https://help.taglo.io/models) supports many of the Functions that you are used to using in Excel, from logical functions like `IF()` and `AND()`, to financial functions like `XNPV()` and `IRR()`.

In fact, all Models functions are Excel functions, meaning you can always generate working Excel spreadsheets from your Models.

You can also create custom functions using the LET/LAMBDA features, which are explained in the [**Advanced Functions section**](https://help.taglo.io/calculations/calculation-parts/functions/advanced-functions).

{% hint style="info" %}
Not all Excel functions are fully supported in Models. You can still use non-supported functions to generate working Excel spreadsheets, but they will not show up in the AutoComplete dropdown, and Models will not be able to calculate values.

See the [**full list of supported functions below**](#list-of-supported-functions).
{% endhint %}

## Entering a Function

The simplest way to create a Function is to simply type the Function name in the [**Formula Entry Bar**](https://help.taglo.io/calculations/the-calculation-page/the-formula-entry-bar).

Typing the name followed by an opening parentheses will create the relevant [**Calculation Parts**](https://help.taglo.io/calculations/calculation-parts), or you can select the Function from the [**AutoComplete dropdown**](https://help.taglo.io/the-calculation-page/the-formula-entry-bar#autocomplete-dropdown) - functions are indicated by the function <img src="https://2847533834-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FVy65sax6FVoNo2UTlJ0x%2Fuploads%2FFcngWLM4lVdSB4jgp6Go%2Fimage.png?alt=media&#x26;token=c43b4ff1-5e00-49d1-9878-466b10b4584c" alt="" data-size="line"> symbol.

As in Excel, Function arguments are separated by commas.

{% hint style="warning" %}
We have not yet implemented an Intellisense equivalent for Function arguments (i.e. where the user interface indicates the name and purpose of each argument).

Please refer to [**Excel documentation**](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/excel-functions-by-category-5f91f4e9-7b42-46d2-9bd1-63f26a86c0eb) or test the Function from within Excel to see the required arguments for an unfamiliar Function.
