colon : vs comma , used syntax for adjacent vs non adjacent cell range

clipboard sytem clipboard (temp register of image or data) (Ctrl +C)

Call outs (shapes draw program)Autoshape - Used to visibly annotate text info to the worksheet with drawing images and objects

Insert Rows and Columns

command under insert to add a colum or row to the table above or to the left of the selected column or row

Insert copied row or column

Recommend to use to insert an entire row or column. Not with cell since this may result in data integrity issues ( a row of data is normally related and one set of data).

Cut (Ctrl X) & paste command for cell or a cell range or an entire worksheet

undo commandbacks out certain commands (moves/cut/paste)

data entry vs. formulas (calculated values)the " = " sign is the tell tale give away; Excel assumes the field info is data type unless = is used and then it evaluates the = and syntax of the formula or statement

Fixed vs variable value

Variable value is a result of a formula ( value can change as for example the term y=f(x) ; as x changes the value of y can change. Fixed value does not change. It is a static value in the program or data field.

order of precedence

left to right , parenthesis over all else and inside first then working towards outside , using operator hierarchy - %, exponents, then * and / are both at same level, and + and - are at the same levels along the way to evaluating the complete formula.

operators used in excel% , e (1.5^2 ), * (multiply) , / (division), + and -

command syntax for cell selection

“ : “ colon symbol is used for as part of the command syntax to select or designate

contiguous cells and “ , “ commas used for noncontiguous cell selection

operands the values or cells which a numeric formula performs a calculation

The table has all the data but • Management and leaders what to concentrate on what are the key drivers that are necessary in order to make a decision. .

• Your are the expert and professional – Don’t be afraid to use draw the line on what is just data vs. what is information. Manager and leaders value information.

1. Review concepts in Lab 1 as needed to refresh your skills – Concept Summary pg EX1.78 - Creating and Editing Worksheets Data Headers and Row headers/ data entry into cells

Formulas and other key terms used in Excel for worksheet elements.

2. Read and practice – Inserting and Deleting Rows and Column beginning on page EX1.48 thru EX1.50

3. Actually do the Step by Step Hands On exercise.

Your have to manually input the data as shown in the book.

Instead of printing ( Ignore print instructions! ) . Save you data to H drive with project name or id

EX1.88 – Teenage Cell Phone Usage Data Analysis Start with Entering data as in EX1.89 and make It look like EX1.88 and graph data

using bar charts as in page EX1.88. Final results look like EX1.88. EX1.90 – Animal Rescue Foundation Adoption Analysis

Bar chart of top 3 (largest) animal housing facilities over 4 year period. Why top 3? If you get through – do exercise EX1-94 – Pecan Groves Homeowners Association
