There are also Number Filters or Text Filters depending on the type of data that are useful for selecting multiple values which fit some certain criteria.
Say you have the numbers 1, 2, 3, …., 20 in a column of data and you have filtered this column to only include the even values (2, 4, 6, …, 20).
If you want to sum these values, type =SUM( and select the visible range, you will end up with =SUM(A3:A21) which is equal to 209. This is also including the non-visible cells in the sum.
