  1. EXCEL 2

  2. Types of information can be typed in a cell • text • numbers • formulas • functions • Text is also known as labels • Aligns at the left • Numbers are also known as values • Aligns at the right TYPES OF INFORMATION IN EXCEL

  3. The purpose of excel is to • compile data • perform calculations • create graphs/charts • Calculations are performed using • formulas - mathematical expressions that you create or enter • functions - mathematical expressions already available in excel EXCEL

  4. To perform calculations an = must be entered first • Formulas containing numbers will produce results that will never change • =3*8 produces the result of 24 • Formulas containing cell references produces results that will change if the data in those cells change. • =A1+B1 will produce results based on the data entered in those cells FORMULAS

  5. It is usually more effective to use a cell reference than entering values in a formula or function • Point-and-click method of entering formulas • use the mouse to select the cells that you want to use to perform the calculations FORMULAS

  6. Operators • Addition + • Subtraction - • Multiplication * • Division / • The sequence used to calculate complex formulas containing more than one operation. • order of operations • parenthesis • multiplication and division • Addition and subtraction ARITHMETIC OPERATORS

  7. Calculate the following equation using order of operations 2nd 1st 1st 2nd = 10 - 5*6 = (10- 5) *6 10-30 = -20 10–5 = 5 * 6 = 30

  8. Functions are built-in formulas • Autosumis a built-in SUM function. • Clicking on the arrow next to the Auto sum • SUM calculates the total in a range of cells • AVERAGE calculates the average in a range of cell • MAX displays highest value in a range of cells • MIN displays smallest value in a range of cells FUNCTIONS

  9. When you use the function button excel will select the range for you • If Excel doesn’t select the right range- select the range you want • ##### sign indicated the numbers are too large for the column • Fix by resizing the column • Label each part of this function: • = Sum(D5:D10) • Equal Sign Function Argument FUNCTIONS

  10. Cell references used to create formulas • Relative – adjusts to its new location when copied • Absolute – Does not change when moved or copied to a new cell • To make a cell reference absolute press F4 and the $ will be entered for you. • $ indicated that a cell is absolute • $A$1 CELL REFERENCING

  11. Formula view • Ctrl + ` • Every worksheet containing formulas must have two pdf files: • Regular • Formula • Both pages in Print Preview must fit on one page. PRINTING
