Excel is a great program that I''m sure everyone has made at least one graph with. Other than just making nice charts and graphs, excel has a metric boat load of commands and functions that are super useful. As a reference, the more functions you know, the more time you''ll be able to save with a wide assortment of tasks that involve calculations.


    I highly recommend taking a bit of time to learn more about excel (and any other programs you might be using at the moment).


    Excel isn''t something you''ll be able to master in a week. There are literally hundreds of functions available to use.


    For anyone who doesn''t have Excel, I''m sure there''s a way for you to acquire it somehow.


    There are also probably free programs that have similar functions out there but I haven''t tested any of them.
