2. Seminar Agenda Unit Four Grading Unit Five Activities Questions

3. Unit Four Assignments Unit Four Assignments have been graded and are in the grade book. If you have not uploaded the assignments, you still have time. Unit Four assignments are worth 80 pts, so it is best to turn in, and receive partial points.

4. Unit 5 Assignments I received some emails this weekend, in which students asked about the assignments for Unit 5. Question: Sounds elementary I know, but please enter the assignments for Unit 5. You do not have to enter the file names, just which assignments you have for this week.

5. Unit 5 – Welcome to Excel Unit A objectives: – Understand spreadsheet software – Tour the Excel 2007 window – Understand formulas – Enter labels and values and use AutoSum – Edit cell entries – Enter and edit a simple formula – Switch worksheet views – Choose print options

6. Unit Five Assignments Unit A, p. Excel 1-17 Unit B, p. Excel 25-41 – Creating a complex formula – Inserting a function – Typing a function

7. Excel Basics Microsoft Excel is an electronic spreadsheet program, that allows you to perform numeric calculations. – The Excel file is called a _________ – Within this _____________ there can be several individual “pages”, called ____________.

8. Excel Basics – The spreadsheet is called a worksheet Individual worksheets are stored in a workbook which is the Excel file.

9. The Excel 2007 Window

10. Excel Basics Each cell has its own unique location called a cell reference Question: For example, where is the cell reference A1 located?

11. Excel Basics A1: Cell where Row 1 and Column A intersect.

12. Excel Basics How do I know which cell is the “active cell” or selected?

13. Excel Basics The Name Box will display the active or selected cell.

14. Understanding Formulas When creating calculations in Excel, it is important to: – Know where the formulas should be – Know exactly what cells and arithmetic operations are needed – Use cell references rather than values

15. Understanding Formulas

16. Creating a formula Question: What symbol should you enter first when beginning a formula? a): b)= c)/ d)*

17. Creating a formula Question: What symbol should you enter first when beginning a formula? a): b)= c)/ d)*

18. Understanding Formulas True or False: – You can only enter formulas in the formula bar. True or False: – You can only enter formulas in the formula bar.

19. Understanding Formulas False: – You can enter formulas in the formula bar or in a cell. False: – You can enter formulas in the formula bar or in a cell.

20. Understanding Formulas Excel arithmetic operators

21. Creating a Complex Formula A complex formula is an equation that uses more than one type of arithmetic operator – Example: formula that uses both addition and multiplication – Arithmetic operations are performed according to the order of precedence

22. Cr eating a Complex Formula

23. Order of precedence in Excel formulas 1.Operations inside parentheses are calculated first 2.Exponents are calculated next 3.Multiplication and division are calculated next (from left to right) 4.Addition and subtraction are calculated next (from left to right)

24. Complex Formula Example Question: Let’s talk about the Round formula used in Excel Unit B: =ROUND(B17+B17*0.2,0). According to order of precedence, how would Excel complete this formula?

25. Complex Formula Example Question: Let’s talk about the Round formula used in Excel Unit B: =ROUND(B17+B17*0.2,0). According to order of precedence, how would Excel complete this formula? B17*0.2, then add the total to B17. What does the zero indicate?

26. Complex Formula Example Question: Let’s talk about the Round formula used in Excel Unit B: =ROUND(B17+B17*0.2,0). What does the zero indicate? – No decimal places in the formula

27. Absolute and Relative Cell References Relative cell references allow you to copy formulas from one cell to another, and allow the “new data to replace the old.” – For example, if you copy a formula from cell B6, which adds up cells B1 to B5, to cell E6, the formula should change to include cell entries from column E.

28. Understanding Relative and Absolute Cell References =SUM(B5:B22)

29. Understanding Relative and Absolute Cell References

30. Absolute Cell References Absolute cell references allow you to copy formulas from one cell to another, and to not “copy over” the original cell reference. – For example, if you multiply B5 X $B$22, with an absolute cell reference,

31. Absolute Cell Reference Turn to page Excel 38 in your textbook, and let’s take a quick look at the text.

32. Inserting a Function A function is a predefined formula that makes it easy to perform a complex calculation

33. Typing a Function Can be found on the Formulas ribbon, in the Function Library.

34. Typing a Function A function/formula can be typed manually into a cell – You must know the name and initial characters of the function When typing a function begin with = Once you type an equal sign, each letter you type activates the AutoComplete feature – What do I mean by the AutoComplete feature?

35. Typing a Function Auto Complete “enters” text for you, based on the text you just typed. You do not have to accept the suggested text, just continue typing.

36. Inserting a Function Function Arguments dialog box
