    • Using the AutoSum Button: In some spreadsheet applications, there might be an option to quickly calculate averages similar to the AutoSum button for sums. This can save time when working with large datasets.

    • Ignoring Non-Numeric Cells: The AVERAGE function automatically ignores any cells that contain text or are empty, focusing only on numeric values.

    • Error Handling: If there is an error in one of the cells in the range, the AVERAGE function will return an error. Ensure that all cells in the range are correctly formatted and contain valid numeric data.
