MS EXCEL
A spreadsheet is essentially a matrix of rows and columns.
Consider a sheet of paper on which horizontal and vertical lines are
drawn to yield a rectangular grid. The grid namely a cell, is the result
of the intersection of a row with a column. Such a structure is called a
Spreadsheet.
A spreadsheet package contains electronic equivalent of a pen,
an eraser and large sheet of paper with vertical and horizontal lines to
give rows and columns. The cursor position uniquely shown in dark
mode indicates where the pen is currently pointing. We can enter text
or numbers at any position on the worksheet. We can enter a formula
in a cell where we want to perform a calculation and results are to be
displayed. A powerful recalculation facility jumps into action each time
we update the cell contents with new data.
MS-Excel is the most powerful spreadsheet package brought by
Microsoft. The three main components of this package are
Electronic spreadsheet
Database management
Generation of Charts.
Each workbook provides 3 worksheets with facility to increase the
number of sheets. Each sheet provides 256 columns and 65536 rows
to work with. Though the spreadsheet packages were originally
designed for accountants, they have become popular with almost
everyone working with figures. Sales executives, book-keepers,
officers, students, research scholars, investors bankers etc, almost any
one find some form of application for it.
