Nested Usage of the IF Function

Application Scenario

The IF function is a commonly used logical function for data processing and analysis. You can nest other functions inside the function to check whether one or more conditions are met, thereby expanding the application scenarios of the IF function. Functions such as AND, OR, and IN are often nested inside the IF function for use.
