PARTS AND FUNCTION

SPREADSHEET
a computer program that allows the entry, calculation, and
storage of data in columns and rows. Examples: Microsoft
Excel, WPS Spreadsheet, Google Sheets

WORKSHEET
A worksheet is made up of individual cells which can
contain a value, a formula, or text. It also has an invisible
draw layer, which holds charts, images, and diagrams. Each
worksheet in a workbook is accessible by clicking the tab at
the bottom of the workbook window. In addition, a
workbook can store chart sheets; a chart sheet displays a
single chart and is accessible by clicking a tab.

WORKBOOK
A workbook is a separate file just like every other
application has. Each workbook contains one or more
worksheets. You can also say that a workbook is a
collection of multiple worksheets or can be a single
worksheet. You can add or delete worksheets, hide them
within the workbook without deleting them, and change the
order of your worksheets within the workbook.

CELL
Cells are the rectangular boxes located in central area of a
worksheet.Data entered into a worksheet is stored in a cell.
Each cell can hold only one piece of data at a time.
A cell is the intersection point of a vertical column and a
horizontal row. Each cell in the worksheet can be identified
by a cell reference or cell address, which is a
combination of letters and numbers such as A1, F456, or
AA34.

ACTIVE CELL
An Active Cell in Excel is a cell that is currently selected.

FORMULA BAR
Located above the worksheet, this area displays the
contents of the active cell. The forumula bar can also be
used for entering or editing data and formulas.

NAME BOX
Located next to the formula bar, the Name Box displays the
cell reference or the name of the active cell.

COLUMN
A COLUMN in Excel is a vertical set of cells. A single
worksheet contains 16384 total columns. Every column has
its own alphabet for identity, from A to XFD. You can select
a column by clicking on its column header.

ROW
A ROW in Excel is a horizontal set of cells. A single
worksheet contains 1048576 total rows. Every row has its
own number for identity, starting from 1 to 1048576. You
can select a row by
clicking on the row number marked on the left side of the
window called row header.
WORKSHEET TAB
This tab shows all the worksheets which are present in the
workbook. By default, you will see, three worksheets in
your new workbook with the names Sheet1, Sheet2, and
Sheet3
respectively.

EXCEL FORMULA AND FUNCTION

Use of Formula and Function


Using Calculation Operators in Excel Formulas

Operators specify the type of calculation that you want to


perform on the elements of a formula. Excel follows general
mathematical rules for calculations, which is Parentheses,
Exponents, Multiplication and Division, and Addition
and
Subtraction, or the acronym PEMDAS (Please Excuse My
Dear Aunt Sally). Using parentheses allows you to change
that calculation order.

Types of operators
There are four different types of calculation operators:
1. Arithmetic
2. Comparison,
3. Text concatenation,
4. Reference

▪ Arithmetic operators
To perform basic mathematical operations, such as
addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division; combine
numbers; and produce numeric results, use the following
arithmetic operators.

▪ Comparison operators
You can compare two values with the following operators.
When two values are compared by using these operators,
the result is a logical value—either TRUE or FALSE.
▪ Text concatenation operator
Use the ampersand (&) to concatenate (join) one or more
text strings to produce a
single piece of text

▪ Reference operators
Combine ranges of cells for calculations with the following
operators.
