Excel thoughts...

Excel is by far my favorite program to use out of my self proclaimed "extensive" knowledge of computer programs. It has so many features and its capabilities are endless. I knew a bit about excel coming into the class but that was only with the older version of excel. I was so surprised to learn all of the new features in the new version of excel and how much easier it is to navigate and perform simple tasks such as chart making. One thing I was really surprised to see is actually how many different functions there really were. I always thought that there were maybe fifteen different functions but there are well over that number. Each one does something unique and different. I think that learning how to use excel is incredibly crucial when going into the business world. Pretty much all business plans are driven from excel spreadsheets and knowledge of how to manipulate excel to get a number you want is invaluable. I know that my new knowledge of excel will truly come in handy when I graduate and find myself sitting behind a desk taking orders from the man in charge.
