What's the use of TRIM function?

TRIM function removes all spaces except single spaces between words. The TRIM function is expecting a single value. When we give TRIM a range of values we must use Ctrl + Shift + Enter to put formula in cell. Range of values in a function argument that is expecting a single value becomes an array formula. TRIM converts numbers to text. to get the number back to a number Add 0 (zero).
