Productivity Tools
It refers to the software that people use to create and produce documents,
presentations, databases, charts, and graphs.
Productivity tools helps you create professional quality documents,
presentation, graphics, and more.

Why should you learn productivity tools?

While there are a wide range of benefits of using productivity tools, the best
reason is that it just makes essential, everyday we use computer to do different
task for more efficient.

Common productivity tools

1. Microsoft word
2. Microsoft excel
3. Microsoft PowerPoint
4. LibreOffice

In this time, we have many options to use of to explore productivity software, like
LibreOffice, a Free and Open Source Productivity Suite, which matches and
perhaps could even exceed the overall features, advantages, and benefits of their
counterpart.

Although, LibreOffice is a Free and Open Source software, most software
available in actual workplace are made from Microsoft. This software is a paid

Mail Merge
It is a Word’s way of generating mass mailings. It involves combining a list of
names and addresses to individually address to each person / receiver on the list.
You can use Mail Merge to create envelopes or address labels, as well as form
letters.

Mail Merged involved the following documents;

• Main document – this document contains text and graphics. Example body of
the letter.
• Mailing list – this is your data source that is used to populate information in the
letter. It contains names and address of the recipients.
• Merged document - this document the combination of the main document

documents; the electronic equivalent of paper, pen, typewriter, eraser, and most
likely, dictionary and thesaurus. Word processors run the scope from simple
through complex, but all ease the tasks associated with editing documents
(deleting, inserting, rewording, and so on).

Electronic Spreadsheet

According to emerald.com electronic

spreadsheet is probably the most useful
general-purpose software for
the microcomputer user. Almost
all spreadsheets are now
packaged in combination with
other applications, such as database
system and graphic
capabilities. Electronic spreadsheet refers
to a collection of text and numbers laid out in a Photo Credit: https://bit.ly/36Gzsdv
rectangular grid. It is an application program commonly used for budgeting,
inventory management, decision making, forecasting and other finance-related
tasks.

It replaces the traditional financial modeling tools, the accountant’s

columnar pad, pencil and calculator. It a spreadsheet program, data and formulas
used to calculate those data are entered into ledge-like forms (Spreadsheets or
Worksheets) for analysis, tracking, planning, or “what-if” evaluations of the impact
of real or proposed changes on an economic strategy.

A great free alternative spreadsheet program is LibreOffice Calc, and

OpenOffice spreadsheet program.

Arithmetic operations

ARITHMETIC OPERATORS /SYMBOLS OPERATION EXAMPLE

+ (Plus Sign) Addition =A1+A2
- (Minus Sign) Subtraction =A1-A2
* (Asterisk) Multiplication =A1*A2
/ (Forward Slash) Division =A1/A2
Raises a no. to a
^ (Exponentiation) =3^2
power
- (Negation) Negative -11

% (Percent Sign) Percentage =90%

Formula – is an equation that performs operation on worksheet data. A

formula in Microsoft Excel always begins with an equal sign (=).
Common Error Values That You Can Encounter from Faulty Formulas

19
1. #DIV/0! appears when entering a formula that performs explicit division
by zero (0), using a reference to a blank cell or to a cell that contains
zero as the divisor in a formula or function that performs division or
running a macro that uses a function or a formula that returns the
#DIV/0! error. The solution is to make sure that the divisor in the
function or formula is not zero (0) or blank or change the cell reference
in the formula to another cell that does not contain a zero or a blank
value.

2. ##### - appears when the column is not wide enough to display the
content and/or dates and times are negative numbers. The solution is to
increase the column width.

3. #NAME? Appears when the formula refers to a range name that

doesn't exist in the worksheet. This error value appears when you type
the wrong range name or fail to enclose in quotation marks some text
used in the formula, causing Excel to think that the text refers to a range
name.

4. #N/A – appears when

A) an inappropriate value was given for the lookup_value

argument in the HLOOKUP, LOOKUP, MATCH, or
VLOOKUP worksheet function,
B) the VLOOKUP, HLOOKUP, or MATCH worksheet function
was used to locate a value in an unsorted table,
C) an array formula (array formula: A formula that performs
multiple calculations on one or more sets of values, and then
returns either a single result or multiple results. Array
formulas are enclosed between braces { } and are entered
by pressing CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER.) is using an argument
that is not the same number of rows or columns as the range
that contains the array formula,

D) one or more required arguments were omitted from a built-

in or custom worksheet function,
E) a custom worksheet function that you use is not available
and
F) a macro that you run enters a function that returns #N/A.

20
 Solution is optionally, if error checking is turned on in Excel,
click the button that appears next to the cell that displays the
error , click Show Calculation Steps if it appears, and then
click the resolution that is appropriate for your data.
5. #NULL! Appears most often when you insert a space (where you should
have used a comma) to separate cell references used as arguments for
functions.
6. #NUM! Appears when Excel encounters a problem with a number in the
formula, such as the wrong type of argument in an Excel function or a
calculation that produces a number too large or too small to be
represented in the worksheet.
7. #REF! Appears when Excel encounters an invalid cell reference, such
as when you delete a cell referred to in a formula or paste cells over the
cells referred to in a formula.
8. #VALUE! Appears when you use the wrong type of argument or
operator in a function, or when you call for a mathematical operation
that refers to cells that contain text entries. For example, the formula
=A1+B1, where A1 contains the string "Hello" and B1 contains the
number 3, returns the #VALUE! error.

Order of Operations

EXCEL FORMULAS MEANING

=A12 Assigns the vale in cell A2 to the active cell.
=10 +3^2 Assigns the sum of 10 + 9(or 19) to the active cell.
=3*D5 or D5*3 or Assigns three times the contents of cell D5 to the
=(3*D5) active cell.
=50% * 20 Assigns the product of 0.50 times 20 (or 10) to the
active cell.
-(F3 * J25) Assigns the negative value of the product of the
values contained in cells F3 and J25 to the active
cell.
=6 * (G5-P7) Assigns the product of 6 times the difference
between the values contained in cells G5 and P7 to
the active cell.
=B4/D8-E3 * M10 +A3 Completes the following operations, from left to right:
^F3 exponentiation (A3^F3), then division (B4/D8 – E3 *
M10) + (A3 ^F3). If cells A3=2, F3=4, E3=6, B4=3,
M10=4, and D8=3, then Excel assigns the active cell
the value 18; that is, 3/3 – 6 * 4 + 2 ^ 4 = -7
