POST 1
What is a spreadsheet?
A spreadsheet is one of the most known formats in drive. It is mostly used to calculate and
organize different formulas.
Why do we use formulas?
Formulas are used for finding a result in cells. Cells are one of the devisions of the
spreadsheet. With many other cells (vertical and horizontal), you can form rows and columbs
that are named with letters (columns) and number(rows). For example: D4 or A2 (Those are
called coordinates). So, getting back to the formulas: you can make a calculation between
two different cells by tipping an equal sign in the cell you chose to write the result in, and
later on writing SUM (+ ­ / or *) and opening brackets and marking all the cells you want add
in you formula and afterwards closing the bracket. But if you want to calculate the sales
taxes you have to (as always) tipe the equal sign open brackets and then selecting the cell
with the price without the taxes tipe a * (multiplicate) and then click on the cell with the
percentage of the tax and closing the bracket.
A personalized spreadsheet is when you make the context of your work more clear by
adding a chart. It comes in many forms like piecharts or columncharts. Adding fonts to it
makes it not justo prettier, but also seems more ineterstibg.
