why do we use excel sheet?

Just like Word is the program to use when you want to type up anything with text
like a letter, a report, a memo etc. Xxcel is the spreadsheet program which you use
to work with figures. Although you can do simple calculations in Word using tables,
it is so much easier to use the program made for figures, i.e. Excel. each figure
will be input in its own cell and it is so easy to use formulaes to add up,
subtract, divide, multiply find the average, the highest figure, the lowest figure
etc etc. So say you have 1,000 figures which you add up, how else would you do it
unless you entered the figures in a calculator. With Excel you just highlight them
all and click on the autosum icon and it adds up immediately. Change a couple of
the figures and the total will recalculate. No matter how many times you alter any
values you type into a cell, if you use the right formula, using cell references,
not the contents of the cell, the formula/result will always be correct. Most
brilliant program out. And of course if you have loads and loads of figures and
don't really understand how to read formulas, you convert figures into graphical
representation for easier digestion, in other words a chart or graph.
