3 Paperless Publishing web publishing : html – hypertext markup language Search engines : –front end –index / database –crawler / bot / index builder –ranking hits.

4 Paperless Publishing Portable Document Format (PDF). Copyright Protection.

5 modeled after accounting ledgers: dynamic ledgers. 1979 : VisiCalc. software sells hardware. Apple Computers. today - still using many of the same principles as 20 yrs ago Spreadsheets

6 Basic features include : automatic updating of calculations, graphing results, built-in functions for common computations. Spreadsheets

7 Cell : intersection of a column and row. cell address : A3 or GG567 Cell Range - denotes a contiguous group of cells, identified by the cell address of the top left corner followed by the cell address of the bottom right corner. worksheet / pages Spreadsheets

8 Cell Range C2:D5 Cell - D11 Column A Row 8 Spreadsheets

9 Data that can be entered in a cell Text / Labels Numbers : actual numerical values (including dates and times) Formulas. Spreadsheets

10 Formulas : start with a special character to indicate calculation. can reference other cells = B4 + C1 dynamic : change as dependant values change. can use built in functions. Spreadsheets

11 Rows & Columns Cell Addresses & Ranges Formulas & Functions Absolute vs. Relative References Macros Templates Wizards Spreadsheets

12 Linking Database capabilities Analysis Tools Graphing : – lies graphs tell. Spreadsheets

13 accounting software. tax preparation software. statistics & data analysis. mathematical software tools. Other Calculation Tools
