Formulas in Excel are very useful, especially when you need to quickly process data. Formulas allow you to solve many problems. Their relationship to the data is such that whenever the data changes, the formula reflects that change, returning an updated result.
In some situations, you might want a formula not to appear in the formula bar when you select a cell that contains a formula. For example, when you send your work to other people. Well, there is a special option in Excel that allows you to hide formulas in cells.
