Charts Project

The Excel project we have been working on with charts, diagrams, and word processing has been very informative. I have learned how to really take all of the different formats and string it all together as a whole presentation. While we are not finished, we are almost there, and doing the entire project has really reinforced the information well.
The formulas and functions are a lot easier than I remembered. I was always intimidated by them, thus I did not use them. However, I was very happy to realize that it was not the case. Also, taking the information and creating charts allows one to see the number in many formats.
Finally, putting all of the information into a paper including tables, is another advantage to reiterating all of the statistics.
