Knowledge on how to use spreadsheet program can help us in computing and organizing our data.

Background Information of the Lesson Attachment A

Introduction to Microsoft Excel
We all deal with numbers everyday. Perhaps we are used to calculating how much our lunch will cost, or
how much money we need to save for that expensive jacket and that new pair of sneakers. Or maybe, we need to
know how many more points we need to get in order to pass Math for this quarter. Whether we realize it or not,
calculating numbers is a skill that we practice easily and apply in daily life. But what if you need to calculate larger
sums, or deal with bigger numbers over longer periods of time? In this case, you will need a spreadsheet program
that can help you in computing and organizing your data.
Microsoft Excel is a widely used spreadsheet program. A spreadsheet program is a software for entering,
editing, manipulating, and printing information in a tabulated form. It is a program mainly used for handling
numbers. A CLASS workbook follows as our example of a Microsoft Excel application.
As soon as you open the program, a new workbook will appear. A workbook, which is what an Excel file is
called, is composed of worksheets. By default, a new workbook is given a temporary name, Book 1.
The worksheet is represented by a grid, much like a graphing paper. The vertical divisions are called columns and
the horizontal divisions are called rows. By default, columns are labeled with letters while rows are labeled with
numbers. The small blocks on the grid, which are the intersections between a row and a column, are called cells.
Cells are identified by their cells. Cells are identified by their cell addresses, composed of the letter of the column
together with the number of the row. (For example, the intersection of Row 7 and Column D is Cell D7.) When
you click a particular cell, you can see its address in the name box. Also, the column heading and row heading of
the active cell are highlighted, or have a different color.

the Cells group under the Home tab, and then click Format.

There are two kinds of data that you can enter into the cells:
labels and values. The labels are alphanumeric characters that you do
not perform mathematical calculations with. Values are numbers that
you use for computation. To classify a number as a label and not a
value, type an apostrophe (‘) first before the number. A small green
triangle will appear on the upper left side of the cell that will denote
that the number is indeed a label.
