Excel is the full-featured spreadsheet program that’s part of Microsoft Office 2016. You can use Excel to perform calculations, create charts, and analyze data.

An Excel file is called a workbook, identified with the extension .xlsx. Each workbook contains one or more worksheets, each identified with a unique tab at the bottom of the screen.
