Concepts

Spreadsheet is made up of rows and
columns (cols), essentially a table
 Excel
calls this a worksheet

Col(s) identified with a letter(s): A

Row(s) identified with a number(s): 1

Intersection of row & col is a cell

Cells identified by col letter followed
by the row number: A1

Cells hold the contents of the
spreadsheet
Use the arrow keys to move
between cells or click on a cell
SS will scroll when you reach the
bottom of the screen
To enter data, move the cursor to
the cell and start typing
Multiple worksheets can be stored
in a single PC file called a workbook4
Like Word, when first started can create from a template
or create blank SpreadSheet (SS)
5
Copyright 2013 by Janson Industries
Standard tabs and ribbons
Active cell (where cursor is) has border around and
address displayed in Name box
Border shows row numbers,
column letters, and active
row/col is highlighted
SS can have many sheets

Moving In the Spreadsheet





Copyright 2013 by Janson Industries
Up, down, right, and left arrows
move one cell at a time
Page down and Page up moves
1 screen of rows (default)
When at the edge of the screen,
up, down, right, and left arrows
scroll one row/column at a time
Ctrl+Home moves cell A1 to
upper left of SS
Go to a cell: enter cell address
in Name box and press Enter
7
Spreadsheet Data

Two general categories
 Text:
descriptive info
 Values:
can perform logic and
mathematical functions against

Values broken into
 Static
numbers/Fixed Constants
 Formulas
 Functions
8
Copyright 2013 by Janson Industries
When entering data Excel will
distinguish between text and values.
E.g. text is left justified in the cell
but values are right justified
9
Copyright 2013 by Janson Industries
SS Data



Text can consist of numeric
characters
 Phone
numbers
 Social
security numbers
Why are these considered text?
No mathematical functions will
be performed against them!
10
Copyright 2013 by Janson Industries
SS Data

There are some special values
that SS’s recognize
 Dates
 Times

SS’s will uniquely format these
values and provide special
functions
11
Copyright 2013 by Janson Industries
SS Data and Formulas

Formulas begin with an = and are
composed of standard mathematical
functions:
 Exponents
 Multiplication
& Division
 Addition & Subtraction

^
* /
+ –
This is also the order of precedence
(and within the formula, left to right)

Can change OOP with ()

Examples: =1+2 , = 2+4/2 , =(2+4)/212
Copyright 2013 by Janson Industries
SS Data - Formulas

Formulas can also include cell
addresses instead of static numbers
 Example:



=G6+G7
Formulas with static numbers
(instead of cell addresses) are
considered “hard coded”
Formulas with cell addresses are
considered “soft coded”
Hard coding BAAAADDDD!
Soft coding GOOOODDDD!
Why? Because of recalculation!
Copyright 2013 by Janson Industries
13
Recalculation


If the content of a cell is changed,
any dependent cells will
automatically be recalculated
Good? Why?

Copyright 2013 by Janson Industries
We substituted cell addresses for the static values in the
formula
When the Car value in cell G5 is changed, the total in
G11 is recalculated automatically by Excel
16
Copyright 2013 by Janson Industries
Formulas


Lots of different ways to specify
cell address
For instance, as you enter the
formula, click on a cell and it will
be added to the formula

Functions

Better alternative than formulas
 Can
be performed against ranges

Function: a predefined calculation

Ex. =A1+A2+A3 vs. =SUM(A1:A3)

Syntax:
 Equal
sign
 Function word (e.g. SUM, MAX, MIN)
 Opening parenthesis
 Range
 Closing parenthesis
61
Copyright 2013 by Janson Industries
Common functions include:
AVERAGE, MIN, MAX, COUNT
Copyright 2013 by Janson Industries
62
Functions

Lots of ways to enter functions:
 In
a cell type: =, function, (, parameters, )
 Type
=, function, (, select parameters with
mouse cursor, press Enter
 Click
INSERT, select function, fill in
prompt window
 Buttons
on ribbon (e.g. Auto sum)
63
Copyright 2013 by Janson Industries
Click cell that will hold the function
Display Auto sum menu
Select the function
64
Copyright 2013 by Janson Industries
Excel will take a guess which cells, press Enter to accept
or...
65
Copyright 2013 by Janson Industries
Select cells you want to sum or...
66
Copyright 2013 by Janson Industries
…type in the range
Notice the different type of border when range typed
67
Copyright 2013 by Janson Industries
If you select the cell to hold the formula first (C24) and
then the range with data (C23:C20) and ALT+=, the
sum function will be inserted into the first cell (C24)
68
Copyright 2013 by Janson Industries
Go to the Formulas ribbon and either:
display a category menu and select the function or..
69
Copyright 2013 by Janson Industries
Click either of the Insert Function buttons, select a
function, click OK
Copyright 2013 by Janson Industries
70
Either way, you get a prompt window where you enter
the parameters and Excel will enter the function
Bolded names

Date Functions


Excel stores dates as a number (but
displays them in date format)
So you can perform math on dates
 Find

elapsed number of days
Other functions:
 =TODAY()
returns the current date
 =WEEKDAY(DATE(1988,2,27))
returns a number representing day
of the week
 1=Sunday,
Copyright 2013 by Janson Industries
2 = Monday, etc
75
Absolute vs. Relative Addresses

Absolute Address:
 123

Main St.
Relative Address:
 Next


door
When you enter cell addresses the
spreadsheet considers them
relative
This is clearly shown when
copying formulas/functions
76
Copyright 2013 by Janson Industries
Change to formula view to help explain
Absolute vs. Relative Cell addressing
77
Copyright 2013 by Janson Industries
Copying the formula in C24 to D24:E24 results in:
Excel considers all three formulas the same
Advantage?
78
Copyright 2013 by Janson Industries
Absolute vs. Relative Addresses


To specify an absolute address
 Precede
the column letter with a $
 Precede
the row number with a $
Example:
 $A$1

When use:
 When
you want to reference the
same cell value in many formulas
79
Copyright 2013 by Janson Industries
Mixed Addresses


One of the row and col
specifications is relative the other
is absolute
Examples:
 $A1
 A$1

When use:
 When
you want to reference a
constant value in the same row or
column
