Electronic Spreadsheet

Tabular listing has many advantages ranging from time management to efficient scheduling of tasks. Electronic spreadsheets allow the user to tabulate and analyze data, using its easy-to-use interface. An electronic spreadsheet is a staple application used among accountants, management staff, and IT professionals. It is used in various sectors worldwide for data management. An electronic spreadsheet is a system and computer software that could be used to do numerical computations automatically. Spreadsheet application programs are often organized as a table with rows and columns. Each row and column intersect to form a cell, which may be used to store data. These data can take the form of a written label, a number, or a formula that combines information from other cells.
