GEOMEAN (geometric mean)

Syntax:

GEOMEAN(Number1 [, Number2, Number3...])

Description:

Returns the geometric mean of the specified numbers.

The geometric mean is the n-th root of the product of the given values (n is the total number of values).

Number1, Number2, etc., are the numbers to be evaluated. All of them have to be greater than zero. The values can be single values, cell ranges, or arrays containing the values to be summed.

If this function refers to empty cells, these are ignored. Also cells that contain text strings or logical values, but these can be entered directly into the list of arguments and thus be taken into account.

Example:

GEOMEAN(1, 2, 6) returns 2.28943
