13. Write down the names of any four website addresses, those you visit often
14. Differentiate between relative and absolute cell referencing techniques with the
help of sample data.
Ans: With relative cell addressing, when you copy a formula from one area of the
worksheet to another, Excel records the position of the cell relative to the cell that
 originally contained the formula. This is the default mode of referencing in a
spreadsheet. Absolute referencing, on the other hand, implies that the coordinates
of a cell are not changed when a formula is copied from one cell to another. To make
a cell address an absolute cell address place a dollar sign in front of both the row
and column identifiers.
For example, if the formula =A1+B1 is copied from cell C1 to cell C3, then it
automatically changes to =A3+B3. But if the formula =$A$1+$B$1 is copied from cell
C1 to cell C3, then it remains unchanged. The dollar sign locks the cell location to a
fixed position. Therefore, when it is copied and pasted it remains exactly the same.
15. Write formulas for the operations (a) – (d) based on the spreadsheet given below
along with the relevant cell address:

Ans:

The position: You can find the footnotes at the bottom every page of the document.
Endnotes, however, appear only at the end of a chapter or the end of the whole document.
Purpose: The common purpose of footnotes and endnotes is to deliver additional
information. However, footnotes offer extraneous information to the readers and refer to
a certain part of the text. Endnotes, on the other hand, offer acknowledgement or
reference to the text.
Content: Footnotes usually feature abbreviated addition of an in-text excerpt. Endnotes
generally feature the details of the reference quoted.
