Excel Project

Microsoft Excel is one of the most widely used spreadsheet programs in business and is used for many personal reasons as well (such as workings with finances and taxes).

This Excel project was extremely useful since knowing how to use Excel is a very big requirement in the business world. Knowing how to work with formulas and various other aspects of the program will definitely help out in any work environment.

I've watched my father use the program to deal with his job as an engineer and I've used it myself a few times to work with my profession as a journalist.

Learning how to use pivot tables is extremely useful to organize the data presented in very large worksheets. In the project we used it to compare different ages and genders for the workout program. When working with other worksheets it can be used to help compare different parts of a spreadsheet just like in the project.

The formulas and pivot tables are a lot of work at first, but with practice they can become extremely useful tools when working with Excel and I plan on working with them more often in the future.
