Within the "Word-PowerPoint-Excel" trio, Excel is often seen as the least intuitive—with its thousands of rows and columns and countless functions. Its reputation as "accounting software" doesn’t help either! However, once you master the basics of navigation and data entry, Excel proves to be a simple, practical, and powerful tool with enough features to refine any type of project. You don’t need to be an accountant or financial expert to find Excel useful. In everyday life, creating lists (guests, suppliers, vocabulary words, etc.), drafting a budget, or tracking anything (fitness performance, investment portfolios, school grades) can be done easily and reliably with Excel.
