This document discusses features and uses of Microsoft Excel. It covers the history of spreadsheets beginning in 1969 and the introduction of Excel and Access in 1992-1993. Key features of Excel discussed include calculation, graphing tools, pivot tables, and the macro programming language Visual Basic for Applications. Macros are defined as rules that map input sequences to output sequences according to procedures. They are used in Excel to automate repetitive tasks and enable code reuse. Visual Basic for Applications allows building custom functions, automating processes, and accessing Windows functionality through macros in Excel.

- 6. Defenition: A macro (short for "macroinstruction) in computer science is a rule or pattern that specifies how a certain input sequence (often a sequence of characters) should be mapped to a replacement output sequence (also often a sequence of characters) according to a defined procedure. A facility for writing macros may be provided as part of a software application or as a part of a programming language. In the former case, macros are used to : make tasks using the application less repetitive. they are a tool that allows a programmer to enable code reuse 4 Macro
- 7. If you have tasks in Microsoft Excel that you do repeatedly, you can record a macro to automate those tasks. A macro is an action or a set of actions that you can run as many times as you want. When you create a macro, you are recording your mouse clicks and keystrokes. SEQUENTIAL TASKS DATA MANUPUPULATION What do you use macros for? 5

Visual Basic for Applications enables: • building user-defined functions (UDFs) • automating processes and accessing Windows API • and other low-level functionality through dynamic-link libraries (DLLs) • VBA can automatically create a Microsoft Word report from Microsoft Excel data that Excel collects automatically from polled sensors 6
