    1.
    Microsoft Excel is a software program produced by Microsoft that allows users to
    organize, format, and calculate data with formula using a spreadsheet system.
    This software is part of the Microsoft Office suite and is compatible with other
    applications in the Office suite. Excel 2020 was released July 2010, and
    extended support ends October 2020
    Microsoft Excel (2010) features and highlights:
    - The ribbon, introduced in Office 2007, can be personalized in Excel 2010. Create
    custom tabs and groups and change the order or rename the built-in tabs.
    - The file tab was added to open Office Backstage view, where you can create and
    open files, print, set Excel options, and more.
    - The trusted documents feature makes it easier to open workbooks and other
    documents that contain active content. And protected view lets you make more
    informed decision about opening a file.
    - Improved conditional formatting and new icon sets make it easier to highlight
    interesting ranges of data.
    - PivotTables are much easier to use and more responsive than previous
    version—which faster data retrieval and enhanced filtering.
    - Excel 2010 included more accurate statistical and other functions. Some existing
    functions renamed to better describe what they do.
    - Equation editing tools are useful for inserting common mathematical equations
    using a library of math symbols.
    - Improved artistic effects and picture-editing tools help you communicate with
    your ideas using photos, drawings, and SmartArt.
    2. Entries to be written in MS Excel
    - Pivot Tables
    Summarise large amount of Excel data from a database that is formatted where
    the first row contains the heading and the other rows contain categories of
    values. The way the data is summarized is flexible but usually Pivot Table will
    contain values summer over some or all of the categories.
    - Enter data manually in Worksheet cells
    You have several options when you want to enter data manually in Excel. You
    can enter data in one cell, in several cells at the same time, or on more than one
    worksheet at once. You can format the data in a variety of ways. And, there are
    several settings that you can adjust to make data entry easier for you.
    3. Parts and Functions
    Data Entry Cells – The majority of Excel’s screen real-estate is spent on data entry
    cells. Each cell has a cell reference, expressed as a column and a row number the
    top-left cell is cell A1. Cells can be resized in height and width by holding your
    mouse cursor over the dividers between the gray cells to the top and to the right.
    Formula Bar- Above the cell reference area for Excel is a white space preceded with
    the fx icon. This area is the formula entry area. All excel formula start with the ‘=’
    sign. To enter a formula, simply click on the cell you’d like to place it in and start
    typing. What you type will be mirrored in the formula entry area. If you want what you
    enter to always be evaluated as text, make the first character a single quote and
    then continue typing.
    Navigation Area- By default, Excel opens a new workbook with three worksheets;
    these are shown at the bottom of the screen with tabs, named Sheet 1, Sheet 2,
    Sheet 3. To the left of the tabs are arrows for scrolling through tabs if you have more
    than can be displayed at once.
    The Ribbon- Excel uses the Ribbon interface to show available tools. The Ribbon
    replaces the older top-level menu toolbar from Excel 2003 and earlier. When a tab is
    selected, all of the icons showing available functions will change. The File area
    opens to a panel for saving and closing files, while the Home tab gives you the most
    formatting options.
    Charts and Analytics- Excel can create charts from data in a given range of cells.
    The charting tools are in the insert tab and allow you to create bar plots, scatter
    graphs, stacked bar charts, and pie charts. Smaller charts that fit within a cell or
    group of merged cells are also available.
    Title Bar- a bar located at the top of a window or a dialog box that displays the name
    of the window or software program being used.
    File tab- a section on the Office Ribbon that gives you access to file functions.
    Quick Access Toolbar- is a customizable toolbar that contains a set of commands
    that are independent of the tab on the ribbon that is currently displayed.
    Status Bar- showing information about a document being edited or a program
    running.
    View Button- appear near the bottom of the screan. You use the view buttons to
    change between Normal view, Slider Sorter view, and the Slide view.
