Range(Cells(6, 1), Cells(200, 4)).ClearContents

I understand its clearing contents. I don't understand the Range/Cells

How to find 2nd largest value in a column?
MAX finds the largest value. =LARGE(A:A,2) will find the second largest. =SMALL(A:A,3) will find the third smallest
Range can be typed in two different ways. The first is:

Range("A2")
Range("A2:D5")

The second is:

Range(Cells(2, 1))
Range(Cells(2, 1), Cells(5, 4))

Where each Cells() is identifying one specific cell. I believe it is Cells(row, column), so:

Range(Cells(2, 1), Cells(5, 4)) = Range("A2:D5")

Cells(Row,Column)

Since the first column is A and the 4th column is D
so the code clears the contents of the range A6:D200
