Returns TRUE if an odd number of arguments are TRUE
Returns TRUE if an odd number of its arguments evaluate to TRUE, and FALSE if an even number of its arguments evaluate to TRUE.
Syntax
XOR(logical1, [logical2])Square brackets indicate optional arguments.
Arguments
| Argument | Required | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| logical1 | Yes | The first condition that you want to test that can evaluate to either TRUE or FALSE.3>0 |
| logical2 | No · repeats | Additional conditions that you want to test that can evaluate to either TRUE or FALSE, up to a maximum of 255 conditions.2<9 |
