| Formula | Description | Result | Expected | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| =ISERR(1/0) | ISERR is TRUE for a #DIV/0! error (any error except #N/A) | True | True | Matched |
| =ISERR(NA()) | Key distinguishing case: ISERR is documented to return FALSE specifically for #N/A, unlike ISERROR (TRUE) -- 'ISERR: Value refers to any error value except #N/A' per https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/is-functions-0f2d7971-6019-40a0-a171-f2d869135665 | False | False This is the whole point of ISERR existing separately from ISERROR: it deliberately excludes #N/A. |
Matched |
| =ISERR("a"+1) | ISERR is TRUE for a #VALUE! error (not #N/A, so it counts) | True | True | Matched |
| =ISERR(5) | A plain non-error number -> FALSE | False | False | Matched |
