Formulas:

Formulas tell MS Excel what calculation needs to be performed on the data.


Formulas always start with an equal sign (=).
They are defined in the Formula Bar.

Example:

To understand this concept, take an example of two numbers, which are 220 and 87 placed in columns A2 and B2,
respectively. The objective is to add these two numbers using MS Excel formula.

To achieve this, follow these steps:

1. Select cell C2.

formula of selected cell.

selected cell.

Q.8: What do you mean by charts or graph in MS Excel? What are its different types? With the help of example display
data with different charts?

Ans: Charts:

A chart is used to represent data graphically. Charts are also known as graphs. They include diagrams and tables.

Charts feature in MS Excel allows the users to present a set of data visually. A huge set of data may not succeed in
presenting its meaning to the reader whereas visual information helps better understand those data values at a glance.

Types Of Charts Or Graphs:

There are many types of Charts. Four most common types of chart used are:

1. Column Charts
2. Line Charts
3. Bar Charts
4. Pie Charts

Other Charts also used are:

1. Area Charts and


2. Surface charts
1. Column charts: use vertical bars to represent data. They can work with many different types of data, but they're
most frequently used for comparing information.

2. Line charts: are ideal for showing trends. The data points are connected with lines, making it easy to see whether
values are increasing or decreasing over time.

3. Bar charts: work just like column charts, but they use horizontal instead of vertical bars.

4. Pie charts: make it easy to compare proportions. Each value is shown as a slice of the pie, so it's easy to see
which values make up the percentage of a whole.

5. Area charts: are similar to line charts, except the areas under the lines are filled in.

6. Surface charts: allow you to display data across a 3D landscape. They work best with large data sets, allowing you
to see a variety of information at the same time.

Example:

To understand this concept, take an example of the average monthly temperature for Larkana in 2018 as shown below:

S.No. Month Temp S.No. Month Temp


1.  January 23 °C 7.  July 41 °C
2.  February 26 °C 8.  August 39 °C
3.  March 32 °C 9.  September 39 °C
4.  April 38 °C 10.  October 36 °C
5.  May 43 °C 11.  November 31 °C
6.  June 44 °C 12.  December 24 °C
The temperature table contains data in a form which is not very helpful for every user to understand. If the same data is
converted into a graph or chart, the user would be better able to reach a conclusion.

From the bar chart, we can easily derive the hottest and the coldest months and compare them with each other.

The same data, if displayed as a graph or chart, will give more meaning and a user can easily derive an understanding of
such values at a glance.

Bar Chart

Line Chart
Making this chart is very easy . All we need to do is to select the table and click at chart button.
