WORKING WITH SPARKLINES
• Sparklines are miniature charts that fit into a

to make the data clearer and more eyecatching
• On the other hand, charts are ideal for
representing the data in greater detail, and
they are often better for comparing different
data series

CONDITIONAL FORMATTING
• Conditional formatting applies one or more
rules to any cells in order to make them stand
out
• This is advantageous when working with large
datasets

PIVOT TABLES
• A PivotTable summarizes the data, making it
easier to manage
• The PivotTable can quickly and easily be
changed to see the data in a different way,

Scenario
• Scenarios let you substitute values for
multiple cells (up to 32) at the same time
• It is especially well-suited to showing bestcase and worst-case scenarios
Data Tables
• Data Tables allow you to take one or two
variables in a formula and replace them with
as many different values as you want, and
then view the results in a table.
• This option is especially powerful because it
shows multiple results at the same time
