Function
- a predefined formula in Excel that
performs calculations for a specific
value using reference cells
Parts of a Function:
- Equal sign (=)
- Function Name
- One or more arguments
Argument

input that you provide to a function
Cell Address
- a combination of a column letter
(top of the spreadsheet) and a row
number (left of the spreadsheet)
Cell Reference
- the cell or sets of cells involved in
a formula
Types of Sorting
- Sort Sheet
- sort all data in your
worksheet by one columns
- Sort Range
- sorts the data in a range of
cells, which can be helpful
when working with a sheet
that contains several tables
Sample Functions:

- add all the values of cells in
the argument
- Average
- get the average of all cells
in the argument
- Count
- counts the number of cells
with numerical data in the
argument
- Max
- get the highest cell value
included in the argument
Min
- gets the lowest cell value
Included in the argument
Filter

- ideal for showing trends
and the data points are
connected by lines.
- Pie
- used to compare
proportions and depicts the
values that make up a
percentage of a whole are
shown as slices of pie
- Bar
- just like a Column bar but
uses horizontal bars instead
