They are under the category of Logical Functions.

The Insert Function dialog box.
Click on the function bar at the top of the worksheet (looks like fx).
The Insert Function dialog box contains a list of predefined functions available in Excel. Click the Insert Function box, and in the search bar, type in a description of what you want to do. Click OK, and then browse through the functions. If you already know the name of a function, choose it from the box.
Yes, they are organised into categories in the functions Library group, which is on the ribbon's Formulas tab.
Functions are formulas built into Excel. These come in a wide variety of specialised categories including Mathematical, Statistical, Logical, Financial, Scientific and many others.
You could not really classify formulas into types as the amount of formulas are infinite and you can have a variety of things happening in a formula. Functions come in categories, and that is maybe what you mean. It will depend on which version of Excel you have, but these are the categories available in later versions: Cube functions Database functions Date and time functions Engineering functions Financial functions Information functions Logical functions Lookup and reference functions Math and trigonometry functions Statistical functions Text functions

A function is a predefined worksheet formula in Excel that allows users to perform complex calculations efficiently. Functions can take multiple arguments and return a single value, streamlining tasks such as summation, averaging, or statistical analysis. By using functions, users can enhance their spreadsheets and automate calculations, saving time and reducing errors.
They are organised into categories. Those categories are: Database functions Date and time functions Engineering functions Financial functions Information functions Logical functions Lookup and reference functions Math and trigonometry functions Statistical functions Text functions External functions Cube functions
They would not need to know all functions, but they would need a good general knowledge of Excel's functions, beyond an ordinary user. Depending on the kind of developing they are doing, they may need to be particularly familiar with some categories of functions. For example, they may need a particular familiarisation with financial functions if they were developing for financial spreadsheets in Excel.
