It features calculation, graphing tools, pivot tables and a macro programming language called VBA(Visual Basic for Applications). Default name of workbook: BOOK1 Extension of ms excel: .xlsx SPREADSHEET DETAILS Worksheet is a grid made up of horizontal row and vertical column. The excel worksheet contains 1048576 rows and 16384 columns. Each intersection of a and column forms cell, in which the user can store data SHROTCUT KEYS CELL REFERENCING Celland Range References: A cell reference or cell address is a combination of a column letter and a row number that identifies a cell on a worksheet. A range reference is represented by the address of the upper left cell and the lower right cell separated with a colon.
Cell Reference Range Reference
Relative Cell References: Relative cell references are basic cell references that adjust and change when copied or when using AutoFill. Absolute Cell References: Situations arise in which the cell reference must remain the same when copied or when using AutoFill. Dollar signs are used to hold a column and/or row reference constant Mixed Cell Reference An mixed reference in Excel is a reference where part of the reference is absolute and part is relative. Formula vs Function A Formula is an equation designed by a user in Excel, while a Function is a predefined calculation in the spreadsheet application. 12 Most Useful Excel Functions for Data Analysis
1. IF: This function means we can automate
decision making in our spreadsheets. =IF(logical test, value if true, value if false) 2. SUMIFS: SUMIFS is one of the most useful Excel functions. It sums values that meet specified criteria. =SUMIFS(sum range, criteria range 1, criteria 1, …) 3. COUNTIFS : The COUNTIFS function will count the number of values that meet specified criteria. It, therefore, does not require a sum range like SUMIFS. =COUNTIFS(criteria range 1, criteria 1, …) 4. TRIM: This brilliant function will remove all spaces from a cell except the single spaces between words. =TRIM(text) 5. CONCATENATE: The concatenate function combines the values from multiple cells into one. =CONCATENATE(text1, text2, text3, …) 6.LEFT/RIGHT: The left and right functions will do the opposing action of concatenate. They will extract a specified number of characters from the start and end of text. =LEFT(text, num chars) =RIGHT(text, num chars) 7. VLOOKUP: It will look for a value in a table and return information from another column relating to that value. =VLOOKUP(lookup value, table array, column index number, range lookup) 8.IFERROR: using IFERROR we could display a more meaningful error than the one Excel provides, or even perform a different calculation. 9. VALUE: Its job is to convert numbers stored as text to numbers. =VALUE(text) 10.UNIQUE: Its job is to extract a unique list of the product names. =UNIQUE(array, by col, exactly once) 11. SORT: As the name suggests, it will sort a list. =SORT(array, sort index,sort order, by col) 12.FILTER: This function will filter a range. =FILTER(array, include, if empty) Conditional Formatting Conditional formatting in Excel enables you to highlight cells with a certain color, depending on the cell's value.
• Highlight Cells Rules
• Clear Rules • Top/Bottom Rules Conditional • Formatting with Formulas Data Validation Data validation is a feature in Excel which is used to control what users can enter into a cell Custom List Ifyou create a custom list in Excel, you can easily fill a range with your own list of departments, clients, cities, credit card numbers, etc. This can save time and reduce errors. Flash Fill FlashFill automatically fills your data when it senses a pattern. Charts A chart is a tool you can use in Excel to communicate data graphically. Paste Special Excel'sPaste Special offers a wide range of options to paste only specific elements of the copied cells or perform a mathematical operation with the copied data Excel Age Calculator Simply by subtracting the birth date from the current date.
