INTRODUCTION TO EXCEL
The Ribbon in MS-Excel is the topmost row of tabs that provide the user
with different facilities/functionalities. These tabs are:
3
1. Home Tab: It provides the basic facilities like changing the font,
size of text, editing the cells in the spreadsheet, autosum, etc.
2. Insert Tab: It provides the facilities like inserting tables, pivot
tables, images, clip art, charts, links, etc.
3. Page layout: It provides all the facilities related to the
spreadsheet-like margins, orientation, height, width,
background etc. The worksheet appearance will be the same in
the hard copy as well.
4. Formulas: It is a package of different in-built formulas/functions
which can be used by user just by selecting the cell or range of
cells for values.
5. Data: The Data Tab helps to perform different operations on a
vast set of data like analysis through what-if analysis tools and
many other data analysis tools, removing duplicate data,
transpose the row and column, etc. It also helps to access
data(s) from different sources as well, such as from Ms-Access,
from web, etc.
6. Review: This tab provides the facility of thesaurus, checking
spellings, translating the text, and helps to protect and share
the worksheet and workbook.
7. View: It contains the commands to manage the view of the
workbook, show/hide ruler, gridlines, etc, freezing panes, and
adding macros.
Creating a new spreadsheet:
In Excel 3 sheets are already opened by default, now to add a new sheet :
In the lowermost pane in Excel, you can find a button.
Click on that button to add a new sheet.
4
We can also achieve the same by Right-clicking on the sheet
number before which you want to insert the sheet.
Click on Insert.
Select Worksheet.
Click OK.
5
Opening previous spreadsheet:
On the lowermost pane in Excel, you can find the name of the current
sheet you have opened.
On the left side of this sheet, the name of previous sheets are also
available like Sheet 2, Sheet 3 will be available at the left of sheet4,
click on the number/name of the sheet you want to open and the sheet
will open in the same workbook.
For example, we are on Sheet 4, and we want to open Sheet 2 then
simply just click on Sheet2 to open it.
7
To save the workbook:
1. Click on the Office Button or the File tab.
2. Click on Save As option.
3. Write the desired name of your file.
4. Click OK.
To share your workbook:
1. Click on the Review tab on the Ribbon.
2. Click on the share workbook (under Changes group).
3. If you want to protect your workbook and then make it
available for another user then click on Protect and Share
Workbook option.
4. Now check the option “Allow changes by more than one user at the
same time. This also allows workbook merging” in the Share
Workbook dialog box.
5. Many other options are also available in the Advanced like
track, update changes.
6. Click OK.
8
Ms-Excel shortcuts:
1. Ctrl+N: To open a new workbook.
2. Ctrl+O: To open a saved workbook.
3. Ctrl+S: To save a workbook.
4. Ctrl+C: To copy the selected cells.
5. Ctrl+V: To paste the copied cells.
6. Ctrl+X: To cut the selected cells.
7. Ctrl+W: To close the workbook.
8. Delete: To remove all the contents from the cell.
9. Ctrl+P: To print the workbook.
10. Ctrl+Z: To undo.
So when you store data in Excel and then share it with others, they can
access it easily.
But apart from that, you can also create your own formulas by
combining two or more functions or just by performing calculations
9
using operators.
10
3. All the tools for data analysis
The core motive of having data is to analyze and get insights out of it.
The good news is Excel has some of the most powerful tools to
analyze data.
Imagine you have data with thousands of rows, you can insert a pivot
table out of that data and create a summary table.
All those major types of charts that you need to use to present your
data are already there and you can insert them with a single click.
If you go to the Insert Tab, in the charts group, you can find all the
charts which you can insert.
Not just that, there’s also a button called recommended charts that
you can use to let Microsoft Excel recommend you the best possible
chart to use for the data you have in your worksheet.
Well, Excel allows you to print with a lot of customization where you
can change the margin, paper size, orientation, etc.
11
There are a whole bunch of options that you can use for page setup
before printing a report.
You can automate all kinds of activities from simple (make a text
bold) to complex (insert a pivot table) using a VBA code.
7. Transform and clean data
If you are one of those people who work with data a lot or you know
someone who works, there are a lot of situations where you need to
deal with messy data which you need to clean before you use it.
For this, Microsoft has introduced the power query which is a data
transformation and cleaning engine well you can load data from
multiple sources, transform it, and then load it back to the worksheet.
12
What makes power query such a powerful tool? Check out this
complete POWER QUERY guide to understand.
8. Store data with millions of rows
Well, there is no limit to data, but Excel has a limit in terms of rows and
columns. So that’s why Microsoft came up with Power Pivot where you
can store data with millions of rows and then you can perform
calculations within Power Pivot.
And recently Microsoft has launched its all-in-one office app that you
13
can use to work on spreadsheets and mobile as well.

FUNCTION NO.1 USING SUMMATION FUNCTION.
The quickest and easiest way to sum a range of cells is to use the
Excel AutoSum button. It automatically enters an Excel SUM function
in the selected cell. The SUM function totals one or more numbers in
a range of cells.
The first example, below, shows how to use the AutoSum feature
1. Select the blank cell in the row below the cells that you want
to sum, cell A5 in this example.
These arguments can be cell references, or can be typed into the formula.
In the example above (=SUM(A1:A4)), there is one argument -- a
reference to cells A1:A4.

16
2. Drag the formula of cell H2 to get the total marks obtained by
all students. The output is shown in the following image.
3. Divide the total marks by 600. The values of the “total marks”
column become the numerator. Since the number of subjects
is 6, the maximum marks are 600 (100*6=600). This becomes
the denominator.
17
4. Apply the following formula.
LAB WORK-
18
In this example, we have two lists of student exam scores. We want to
return the average into cell G3, for all student exam scores from both
regions.
4. Select range E3:E11. Type a closing parenthesis “)” and press Enter.
19
LAB WORK-
For example
MEAN(AVERAGE) in
Excel
We wish to find out the top 3 scores in the above data set. The formula
to use will be:
20
We get the result below:
In the above formula, the LARGE function retrieved the top nth values
from a set of values. So, we got the top 3 values as we used the array
constant {1,2,3} into LARGE for the second argument.
Later, the AVERAGE function returned the average of the values. As the
function can automatically handle array results, we don’t need not use
Ctrl+Shift+Enter to enter the formula.
LAB WORK-
Let’s now see how to find the median in Excel. Let’s Say we have the
following data set.
21
We want to find the median salary.
=MEDIAN (C2:C10)
Press Enter.
22
As evident, the MEDIAN returns a value of ‘69,740’, which isn’t even
included in the list.
That’s because the total count of list entries is an even number. And
for even numbers, Excel returns the median as the average of the
two middle numbers.
Note: The mode is a type of average value, which describes where most
of the data is located. You can read more about mode in our: Statistics
23
24
It returns the number 1 which is seen 7x times. The closest
number to it is 3 and 4 which are seen 3x times each.
LAB WORK-
26
To insert array1 and array2 just select the cell range for both.
1. Let’s find the correlation coefficient for the variables and X and Y1.

27
FUNCTION NO.8 USING SUM IF FUNCTION.
It is typed =SUMIF:
28
The function now sums the Total stats for Grass type Pokemon.
The function can be repeated for the other Pokemon types to compare them:
Note: You can use the filling function for the other rows, but make
sure to use absolute references for the ranges.
Now, we can see the sum of total stats for the different types of Pokemon:
29
FUNCTION NO.9 USING MAX FUNCTION.
It is typed =MAX
The function ignores cells with text. It will only work for cells with
numbers.
Note: There is another function called MIN, which finds the lowest
value in a range, the opposite of MAX.
How to use the =MAX function:
Find the Pokemon which has the highest total stats in the range D2:D21:
30
31
The function has successfully found the highest value, 525. Cloyster
has the highest Total stats of the Pokemons in the range D2:D21.
Let's add text to a cell in the range D2:21 to see what happens. Type
Alakazam to D8.
LAB WORK-
32
FUNCTION NO.10 USING MIN FUNCTION.
It is typed =MIN
The function ignores cells with text. It will only work for cells with
numbers.
Note: There is another function called MAX, which finds the highest
value in a range, the opposite of MIN.
How to use the =MIN function:
Find the Pokemon which has the lowest total stats in the range D2:D21:
33
34
The function has successfully found the lowest value, 200. Magikarp
has the lowest Total stats of the Pokemons in the range D2:D21.
Let's add text to a cell in the range D2:21 to see what happens. Type
Kadabra to D21.

How a PivotTable Works
1. Columns
2. Rows
36
3. Filters
Filters are used to select what data you see. In this example,
there are two filters enabled: Generation and Type 1.The filters
are set to Generation
(1) and Type (Psychic).We will only see Generation 1
pokemonm that is Type 1, Psychic.All pokemon in the table
below the filter are of this generation and type.
4. Values
Values define how you present the data.You can define how
you Summarize and Show values.In this example, values are
defined for the range B5:E5.The range B5:E5 has all the same
value setting: Sum The Sum is summarized in the range
B14:E14.
37
Values settings view:
38
1. Fields
You can click the downwards arrow to change how the data is presented.
2. Layout
Drag and drop fields to the boxes to the right to display data in the table.
You can drag them to the four different boxes that we mentioned
earlier (four main components):
1. Filters
2. Rows
3. Columns
4. Values
39
In this example, we will drag and drop Sp. def to Values.
The settings of the fields that you have moved to the right side
can be changed.
This is possible in the four areas (Filters, rows, columns and, values).
40
FUNCTION NO.12 USING VLOOK-UP FUNCTION.
The VLOOKUP function is a premade function in Excel, which allows searches across columns.
41
1. Select a cell (H4)
2. Type =VLOOKUP
3. Double click the VLOOKUP command
4. Select the cell where search value will be entered (H3)
5. Type (,)
6. Mark table range (A2:E21)
7. Type (,)
8. Type the number of the column, counted from the left (2)
9. Type True (1) or False (0) (1)
10. Hit enter
11. Enter a value in the cell selected for the Lookup_value H3(7)
Use the VLOOKUP function to find the Pokemon names based on their ID#:
H4 is where the search result is displayed. In this case, the Pokemons names
based on their ID#.
42
H3 selected as lookup_value. This is the cell where the search query is entered.
In this case the Pokemons ID#.
43
The number 2 is entered as col_index_number. This is the second column
from the left and is the data that is being looked up.
44
Ok, so next - 1 (True) is entered as range_lookup. This is because the most
left column has numbers only. If it was text, 0 (False) would have been used.
The function returns the #N/A value. This is because there have not been
entered any value to the Search ID# H3.
Have a look at that! The VLOOKUP function has successfully found the
Pokemon Squirtle which has the ID# 7.
45
LAB WORK-
It is typed =COUNTIF
1. Select a cell
2. Type =COUNTIF
3. Double click the COUNTIF command
4. Select a range
5. Type ,
6. Select a cell (the criteria, the value that you want to count)
7. Hit enter
46
Apply the COUNTIF function to range B2:B21, to count how many

FUNCTION NO.14 USING AND FUNCTION.
Check if the Pokemon type is fire and has speed greater than
50
4. Specify the first condition B2="Fire"
5. Type ,
6. Specify the second condition C2>70
7. Hit enter
Note: You can add more conditions by repeating steps 5-6 before hitting
enter.
Since the value in cell B2 is not "Fire" the first condition is FALSE.
Since the value in cell C2 is less than 70 the second condition is also
FALSE. All conditions need to be TRUE for the AND function to return
TRUE.
The function can be repeated with the filling function for each row to
perform the same check for each Pokemon:
Now, each row has a check for Fire Type and Speed greater than 70:
51
Only Charmeleon and Charizard both have Fire type and speed greater
than 70, so the function returns "TRUE".
LAB WORK-
It is typed =OR.
52
Example OR function, step by step:
Note: You can add more conditions by repeating steps 5-6 before hitting
enter.
53
Since the value in cell B2 is not "Water" the first condition is FALSE.
Since the value in cell C2 is less than 60 the second condition is also
return TRUE.
The function can be repeated with the filling function for each row to
perform the same check for each Pokemon:
Now, each row has a check for Water Type or Defense greater than 60:
For example:
Ivysaur is not Water type, but it has more than 60 defense, so the
function returns "TRUE".
Charmeleon is not Water type, and has less than 60
defense, so the function returns "FALSE"
Wartortle is both Water type and has more than 60
defense, so the function returns "TRUE"

NO.16 SAMPLE QUESTIONAIRE
With a survey questionnaire, you can gather a lot of data in less time.
There is less chance of any bias creeping if you have a standard
set of questions to be used for your target audience. You can
apply logic to questions based on the respondents’ answers, but
the questionnaire will remain standard for a group of respondents
that fall in the same segment.
Surveying online survey software is quick and cost-effective. It
offers you a rich set of features to design, distribute, and analyze
the response data.
It can be customized to reflect your brand voice. Thus, it can be
used to reinforce your brand image.
The responses can be compared with the historical data and
understand the shift in respondents’ choices and experiences.
Respondents can answer the questionnaire without revealing their
identity. Also, many survey software complies with significant
data security and privacy regulations.
56
or test a previously generated hypothesis. However, most
questionnaires follow some essential characteristics:
57
Uniformity: Questionnaires are very useful to collect demographic
information, personal opinions, facts, or attitudes from
respondents. One of the most significant attributes of a research
form is uniform design and standardization. Every respondent
sees the same questions. This helps in data collection and
statistical analysis of this data. For example, the retail store
evaluation questionnaire template contains questions for
evaluating retail store experiences. Questions relate to purchase
value, range of options for product selections, and quality of
merchandise. These questions are uniform for all customers.
Exploratory: It should be exploratory to collect qualitative data.
There is no restriction on questions that can be in your
questionnaire. For example, you use a data collection
questionnaire and send it to the female of the household to
understand her spending and saving habits relative to the
household income. Open-ended questions give you more insight
and allow the respondents to explain their practices. A very
structured question list could limit the data collection.
Question Sequence: It typically follows a structured flow of
questions to increase the number of responses. This sequence of
questions is screening questions, warm-up questions, transition
questions, skip questions, challenging questions, and
classification questions. For example, our motivation and
buying experience questionnaire template covers initial
demographic questions and then asks for time spent in sections of
the store and the rationale behind purchases

be a limitation for those who prefer open-source software or who are unable to afford the
cost of SPSS.
3- Complexity:SPSS includes a wide range of features and options, which can make it a
complex software package to learn and use. This may be a barrier for some users, particularly
those who are new to statistical analysis or who have limited technical skills.
4- Lack of real-time analysis: SPSS does not offer real-time analysis, which means that you
must run analyses and generate reports separately from your data collection efforts. This may
be a limitation for those who need to make real-time decisions based on data.
5- Limitedsupport for certain data types: SPSS is primarily designed for analyzing tabular data,
and it may not offer as much support for other types of data, such as image or video data. This
may be a limitation for those working with these types of data.
• CONCLUSION: -
In conclusion, SPSS is a powerful and widely used software package for data
management and statistical analysis. It includes a wide range of features and
tools for analyzing and interpreting data, and it is used in a variety of
industries, including social sciences, marketing, healthcare, and education.
However, SPSS is a commercial software package that can be expensive to
purchase and maintain, and it may be complex and difficult to learn for some
users. It may also have limitations in terms of its support for certain types of
data and its lack of real-time analysis capabilities. Despite these limitations,
many users find SPSS to be a valuable tool for understanding and
interpreting data, and it is likely to continue to be a popular choice for
statistical analysis.
