4.  Define the accuracy goal.  Apply the spreadsheet design goal of accuracy.

5.  SUM Function  AVERAGE Function  MIN & MAX Functions  COUNT Function  3D Calculations  Range Name  Change Legend  Change Axis  Add Data Series  ‘Other’ Pie Slice

6.  Know the order of operations.  Select the correct function or construct the correct formula. (Choose a function over a formula.)  Isolate assumptions.  Check relative and absolute cell references.  Double-check all calculations.

7.  Parentheses  Multiplication and Division  Addition and Subtraction

8. 1. 6 / 2 * 4 = 2. 3 + 2 * 2 – 1 = 3. ( 2 * 5 ) + 15 / 5 =

9.  Formula ◦ created by you ◦ = A1 + A10  Function ◦ keyword defined by Microsoft ◦ =SUM(A1:D1) ◦ Functions are more flexible than formulas

10. =B3+B4+B5+B6 =SUM(C3:C6) If you delete Row 5 =SUM(C3:C5)

11.  =cell reference  Used to transfer data from one cell to another  Benefit over copy & paste: redundant location is dynamic

12.  SUM  AVERAGE  MIN and MAX  COUNT

14.  Store numbers in cells  Write equations to point to cells containing numbers

15. Assumption =E2+3 is incorrect =E2+H2 is correct

18. Cell AddressReferenceChanges when Copied A1RelativeVertically or Horizontally $A$1AbsoluteNever $A1MixedVertically A$1MixedHorizontally The cell addresses in the copied calculation may change. Any changes are made according to the direction and distance of the destination cell from the original source cell.

19.  Is the formula entered going to be copied?  If so, which direction?  If it’s copied vertically, do you want the row references to change? If it’s copied horizontally, do you want the column references to change?  Do you want such a change to take place?

21. 1. Will you copy this function? 2. If so, which direction: vertical or horizontal? 3. If you copy vertically, Excel will automatically change all relative row references. Do you want those row references to change? =SUM(B2:D2)

22. Mixed Cell References Needed? How Do You Spend Your Study Time?

23.  What equations would you use to calculate ◦ Weighted Credits for each course ◦ Total Semester Credits ◦ Total Semester Weight Credits ◦ GPA  Remember to: ◦ Choose a function over a formula ◦ Isolate assumptions ◦ Check relative and absolute cell references

25.  IF function displays one of two possible values depending on the outcome of a logical test  Logical Test compares two things  If the Logical Test equates to TRUE, the cell is filled with the True Value.  If the Logical Test equates to FALSE, the cell is filled with the False Value.

26.  If a course requires more than 3 hours of study time per week, we will label it HARD. Three or less hours of study is labeled EASY.

27.  What cell is used for the logical test?  What is the logical test?  What is the true value? False value? 3

28. IF Grade Example  Use the IF function to assign Pass/Fail grades. =IF(V4>=.6,”P”,”F”)
