Introduction to Microsoft Excel:

Microsoft Excel is a spreadsheet software used for organizing, calculating, analyzing, and reporting data. It was developed by Microsoft and is part of the Microsoft Office package.

Excel is primarily designed to work with numbers, text, and formulas. It has millions of rows and columns, in which data can be organized in the form of tables.

Features of Microsoft Excel:

1. Data Management in Spreadsheet Format: In Excel, data is organized in rows and columns. In each cell, you can enter different data, text, numbers, formulas, or functions.

2. Formulas & Functions

In Excel, along with simple mathematical operations like +, -, *, /, hundreds of advanced formulas are provided that help in processing data.

SUM: For addition – =SUM(A1:A10)

A Pivot Table is an advanced tool that helps in summarizing very large data and quickly preparing reports.

6. Data Security and Password Protection
