Consider the array A1:E3 below:

| A | B | C | D | E
--- | --- | --- | --- | --- | ---
1 | AAA | BBB | CCC | DDD | EEE
2 | FFF |  |  | III | JJJ
3 | KKK | LLL | MMM | NNN | OOO

The formula {=DROP(A1:E3;1;3)} returns the array below dropping first 1 row and first 3 columns.

III | JJJ
NNN | OOO

The formula {=DROP(A1:E3;-1;-3)} drops the last row and the last 3 columns.

AAA | BBB
FFF |
