Presentation transcript:

Excel Basics This is a row. Rows are represented by numbers along the side of the sheet. This is a column. Columns are represented by letters across the top of the sheet. Excel spreadsheets organize information (text and numbers) by rows and columns:

Excel Basics A cell is the intersection between a column and a row. Each cell is named for the column letter and row number that intersect to make it.

Data Entry There are two ways to enter information into a cell: 1. Type directly into the cell. Click on a cell, and type in the data (numbers or text) and press Enter. 2. Type into the formula bar. Click on a cell, and then click in the formula bar (the space next to the ). Now type the data into the bar and press Enter.

Practice Entering Data 1. Open Excel (Start  All Programs  MS Office  Excel). 2. Enter the following information into your spreadsheet:

Formulas When you select a cell on a spreadsheet, you can enter data (e.g., text or numbers) into it, or you can enter a formula. Formulas are equations that perform calculations or values in your worksheet. Formulas always begin with an equal sign (=). When you enter an equal sign into a cell, you are basically telling Excel “calculate this.” Try entering ‘=5+2*3’ into an empty cell and press Enter to see what happens. To edit a formula, you can double-click the cell containing it.

Functions Functions are Excel-defined formulas. They take data you select or enter, perform operations on them, and return a value or values. The most common format for the functions we will use today is: “=FunctionName(first cell label:last cell label)” =SUM(B2:B9) =SUM(B1,B2,B3,B4,B5,B6,B7,B8,B9) **BOTH functions above will give you the same result, but notice the two different ways of telling Excel which cells should be added together.** Today we will begin by calculating means, medians, modes, variances, and standard deviations.

Functions for Descriptive Statistics =AVERAGE(first cell:last cell) calculates mean =MEDIAN(first cell:last cell) calculates median =MODE(first cell:last cell) calculates mode =VAR(first cell:last cell) calculates variance =STDEV(first cell:last cell) calculates standard deviation You may directly write the functions for these statistics into cells or the formula bar, OR You may use the function wizard ( in the toolbar) Below are several functions you will need to learn for this class. Try them out with the practice data set.
