The nice thing about using a spreadsheet is that you can experiment with numbers without having to RE-DO all of the calculations!
It is a grid made from columns and rows.

Spreadsheets are made up of◦columns◦rows◦cells

COLUMNS…
COLUMNS go vertically - up and down.
They are defined by Letters which go across the top of the grid.

ROWS go horizontally - left to right
Rows are defined by Numbers which go down the left side of the grid.

The CELL is the space where the column and the row intersect.
The CELL is named according to its Column letter and Row number.
It is where the information is stored.

Cells can contain four types of data.
LABEL - anything that is just text
ex. Title or Items or Cost
FORMULA - math equation
ex. =8*5 or =6+8/4
VALUE - any number
ex. 8 or 3.14 or -59.6
FUNCTION - built in formula
ex. =SUM(A1:A5)

LABELS help us identify what the numbers stand for… they help us understand the spreadsheet.
LABELS are text entries - they have no numerical value.
![Page 11: Presented by Dawn Bone Changes by Laura Roberts Calera High School & Calera Middle School](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649ed15503460f94be0bb1/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Values are used to enter FIXED number data.
A value can be any kind of specific number:
currency, percent, decimal ...
![Page 12: Presented by Dawn Bone Changes by Laura Roberts Calera High School & Calera Middle School](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649ed15503460f94be0bb1/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
When you are working with values, you must use the appropriate symbols.
+ is the symbol for addition
- is the symbol for subtraction
* is the symbol for multiplication
/ is the symbol for division

Formulas are equations that performs calculations.
All formulas MUST BEGIN with an equal sign (=).
A formula will be displayed on the screen as a number, but the formula bar will show the formula.
![Page 14: Presented by Dawn Bone Changes by Laura Roberts Calera High School & Calera Middle School](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649ed15503460f94be0bb1/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Functions are built in equations that perform calculations automatically
All function MUST BEGIN with an equal sign (=).
A function will be displayed on the screen as a number, but the formula bar will show the function.

You can use the Chart Wizard to help you make a chart or graph.
There are 16 types of charts you can choose from. The type of chart you pick usually depends on the data you are using!
Examples: Pie charts
Bar graphs
Line graphs

Charts or Graphing
chart sheets – the chart exists on a separate sheet in the workbook
embedded charts – the chart exists as an object in the worksheet alongside the data
legend – identifies each data series in the chart
