What causes formula parse error in Excel?

I keep getting formula parse error in Excel formulas. What causes formula parse error and how do I fix it?

A formula parse error in Microsoft Excel occurs when Excel cannot understand the formula due to syntax issues like missing parentheses, incorrect function names, wrong separators, or referencing invalid cells, preventing the formula from calculating properly.

A formula parse error in Excel happens when the formula has wrong syntax, misspelled functions, wrong separators, invalid references, or mismatched parentheses.
