What is Excel?
Microsoft Excel is the world’s most popular spreadsheet program. You can use it to store data, calculate, analyze and build charts.
Why use Excel?
Excel calculates automatically: change one number and every result that depends on it updates instantly. Accounting, sales, inventory, grades, personal budgets — Excel is used almost everywhere.
Why do employers ask for Excel?
Many job listings require “Excel skills”. Someone who knows formulas, filters and VLOOKUP gets an hour of work done in minutes.
What will you learn here?
Cells and ranges, formulas, references, order of operations and functions. Each topic ends with a simulator where you try it yourself — nothing to install.
- After each topic, try it by hand in the simulator — that’s how it sticks.
- To test yourself, do the exercises in the “Practice” section.
Try it in the simulator
The simulator looks like real Excel. Type your city into cell C2 and press Enter.
