Microsoft Excel is the world’s most widely used spreadsheet program. It stores data in a grid of rows and columns, and lets you calculate, analyse and chart that data using formulas and functions. People use it for everything from budgets and invoices to reporting and data analysis. This guide covers the essentials, from cells to PivotTables.
A pivot table is an Excel tool that summarises a large table of data into a compact, interactive report. In a few clicks it groups your data and calculates totals, counts or averages, so you can answer questions like “total sales by region” without writing a single formula. To create one, select your data and choose Insert > PivotTable.
Microsoft Fabric is a unified software as a service (SaaS) analytics platform that brings data engineering, data warehousing, data integration, real-time analytics, data science and Power BI into one governed environment. Every workload writes to OneLake, a single logical data lake in open Delta Lake format, so one copy of data serves every engine instead of each tool keeping its own.
