Default if a1=b1=c1=d1....

=DEVSQ(A1:D1)=0

Now that's thinking outside the box. Very nice.

Maybe another option if all cells are numbers:

=DEVSQ(A1:D1)=0

Slightly shorter:

=AND(A1=B1,B1=C1,C1=D1)

is it possible to have this type of equation?
=if(a1=b1=c1=d1,"true","false")
I don't want to just find the sum of these cells because there may be
other
instances where they do equal a sum, but are not equal to each other.
1 1 1 1 (right)
4 0 0 0 (wrong)
