Introduction to Ms excel
2010
Microsoft Excel 2010 is an excellent program for organizing,
formatting & Calculating numeric data. Excel display data in
a row-&-column format, with gridlines between the two row
and columns. A number cruncher for performing numerical
analyces.an excel file is called is workbook.

WORK SHEETS
Microsoft Excel consists of worksheets. Each worksheet
contains columns and rows. The columns are lettered A to
Z and then continuing with AA,AB,AC and So on to XFD
(16384) the rows are numbered 1 to 1,048,576.
FORMULA
A self made method of calculation is called
formula.
By Value =2+3 Ans 5
By Cell Reference
=A1+B1 If A1 cell value 2 & B1 value 3
Ans 5
FUNCTION
A pre-define method of calculations is call
function
By Value =SUM(2,3) Ans 5
By Cell Reference
=SUM(A1,B1) If A1 cell value 2 & B1 value 3
Ans 5

Formula Building
A formula always begin with equal sign (=)
and includes cell reference and some type of
mathematical operator. For Examples the
formulas = C4+C5 take the value in C4 and
adds it to C5
Excel uses arithmetic operator [+,-,*,/,%,^]
and Logical operators [>,<,=,>=,<=,<>]
which return value true and false in
formulas compare two value
Relative and Absolute cell Reference
Excel use two types of cell reference to create formula
Each has its own purpose
1. Relative cell Reference
2. Absolute cell Reference
Relative cell Reference
This is the most widely used types of
cell reference in formulas. Relative cell
reference are basic cell reference that
adjust and change when copy formula.
Relative cell Reference exp
= (A1+B1) Change to = (A1+B1) When copied across to
the next cell =(A2 + B2)
A1 B1 A1+B1
A2 B2 A2+B2
A3 B3 A3+B3
A4 B4 A4+B4
A5 B5 A5+B5
A6 B6 A6+B6
A7 B7 A7+B7
Absolute cell Reference
When copied or when using filling formula . Dollar
signs are used to freeze a column and or row
reference.
Examples
$A1
Allows the row reference to change , but not the
column reference
A$1
Allows the Column reference to change , but not the
row reference
$A$1
Allow neither the column nor the row reference to
change
FUNCTION
A pre-define method of calculations
is call function
By Value =SUM(2,3) Ans 5
By Cell Reference
=SUM(A1,B1) If A1 cell value 2 & B1
value 3
Ans 5
Building Function Requirements
1. Equal Sign =
2. Function Name
3. Cell Reference
4. Comma / ratio sign use between
Reference , :
5. Parenthesis ()
6. Exp = SUM (A1,B1)
Sum Functions
Function name Syntax Purpose
Sum =sum (range) For addition of cell or
values
Exp = SUM (A1 , B1)
= SUM (A1 : A4)
=SUM ( 5 , 6 )
Product Functions
Function name Syntax Purpose
Product =Product (range) For Multiplication of cell
or values
Exp = Product (A1 , B1)
= Product (A1 : A4)
= Product ( 5 , 6 )
Commonly used Functions
Function name Syntax Purpose
Average =Average (range) For Average of cell or
values
Exp = Average (A1 , B1)
= Average (A1 : A4)
Maximum Functions
Function name Syntax Purpose
MAXIMUM =MAX (range) For Maximum value of
the range
Exp = MAX (A1 , B1)
= MAX (A1 : A4)
= MAX ( 5 , 6 )
Count Functions
Function name Syntax Purpose
COUNT =COUNT (range) For Counting of numeric
value
Exp = Count (Cell Range)
Counta Functions
Function name Syntax Purpose
Counta =Counta (range) Count the number of cells
that are not empty
Exp = Counta (Cell Range)
Countblank Functions
Function name Syntax Purpose
Countblank =Countblank (range) Count the empty cells in
the range
Exp = Countblank (Cell Range)
Power Functions
Function name Syntax Purpose
Power =power (Value, power) Calculate the result of
number raised powers
Exp = Power (Value , Power)
If Functions
Function
name
Syntax Purpose
If =If (condition, value_if_ture,
value_if_false)
The if function is used to
make decisions.
Exp = if (A1>=33, ”Pass” , ”Fail”)
Condition Value if true Value if False
