# FILTERIF

The FILTERIF function can be used to filter an array of values based on a given condition. It returns an array—hence, it has to be used in conjunction with an aggregate function like SUM or AVERAGE. It can be used to populate a calculated row.

### Syntax

```javascript
FILTERIF(list,condition)
```

### Arguments

list – The input list of values on which the filter is to be applied.

condition – The condition to be evaluated.

### Return value

The function returns an array.

### Example 1

```javascript
FILTERIF([AGE],">50")
```

The formula above will use FILTERIF to filter all the rows of people whose age exceeds 50.

### Example 2

```javascript
AVERAGE(FILTERIF([Column1,Column2,Column3],">1000"))
```

The above example calculates the average of values in Columns 1, 2, and 3 that are greater than 1,000.
