HABIT TRACKER (EXTENDED) – ADVANCED FEATURES

- Daily Status: Checkboxes (TRUE/FALSE) for each habit per day.

- Monthly Summary: Dynamic summary showing completion rate and best/longest streaks per habit.
FORMULAS AND AUTOMATION
This template uses several key formulas for automation:=SUMIF('Daily Study Log'!B:B, "Mathematics", 'Daily Study Log'!F:F)– Total time spent on Mathematics.=AVERAGEIF('Daily Study Log'!E:E, ">0", 'Daily Study Log'!F:F)– Average duration of study sessions with valid data.=COUNTIFS('Habit Tracker (Extended)'!C:C, TRUE, 'Habit Tracker (Extended)'!B:B, "Study 2+ hours daily")– Tracks number of days a habit was completed.=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(TODAY(), 'Daily Study Log'!A:F, 1, FALSE), "No entry today")– Checks if the user has logged today's session.
