Stop Using Caluclator
With the advent of mobile handsets, many people have stopped wearing watches. The reason is that watches in mobile handsets give far more facilities than the actual ones which we wear on the wrist. People see no benefit in paying for a watch to burden their wrists.
However one thing is very surprising. People still tend to use calculators. Big Calculators are used especially at workplaces. For many people especially in workplaces calculator is nothing but an extension of their body. When we have excel format which is much more convenient, easy to use and has a bigger and better display what is the point in using calculators? A few advantages of Microsoft Excel in comparison to conventional calculators are:-
Editing Facility:- When you mistype a number, you can always edit or replace without any difficulty whereas in calculators editing and replacing is very tedious and irritating and one which requires lot of patience. The chances of your data getting erased are more, especially when you are in a hurry.
Easy to type:- If you are adding about 100 numbers at a time, typing those 100 numbers is easier in excel. Typing in a computer is always easier compared with a calculators. A feather touch will do while typing on a computer, but with a calculator you have to bang in hard. Therefore typing in excel saves you energy and time.
Comparing:- When you are required to add about 100 numbers, the possibility of committing mistakes by wrong typing like multiple entries of the same number or missing out some numbers are more. With Excel you also get an additional option of easily comparing whether the numbers typed are right Correction therefore becomes very easy in excel.
Copying Facility:- When few numbers are identical, you can always copy. Wherever digits of some numbers are being close to identical, you can copy and edit instead of typing the entire digits.. This is a great facility in Excel which you cannot find in a calculator.
Excel takes care of Output :- You need not waste a single ounce of energy for getting output from excel. Formulas take care of your multiplication, subtractions, division and averages. Your only work is feeding in data as you are not required to press any button like plus, minus or into.
Find Facility:- The Find or Search Facility ensures that you can even find a single number out of 500 plus numbers in a fraction of a second to find out whether you have entered the number or missed it. With calculator you have to spend hours searching out to find out a number is entered or not.
Saving Data:- You have the option of saving numbers in Excel which is not available in routine calculators. This also gives the flexibility of doing work at your convenience. If you have to add up 500 numbers, you can do the same in 5 or 6 attempts of typing 80 numbers at a time.. In a calculator you are required to block your concentration and energy levels, till you finish typing all those 500 numbers. In today's world time is the most important thing as a person finds it difficult to sit in a place for even 5 minutes and saving data ensures that you need not block your time unnecessarily.
Finishing unfinished data at a place convenient to you:- Excel also gives you the option of copying the data into a device and fishing of your balance task at your home, internet parlor or laptop.
If one looks at the above mentioned books, there is no point in wasting our time and energy using calculators. Excel is the new calculator. Excel is easy, fast, comfortable and convenient.
