Spend hours on spreadsheets that a single formula could finish in seconds? This book shows you how.
Excel and Google Sheets are used in almost every job — for budgets, sales reports, attendance, inventory, school marks and more. Excel was mentioned in 81% of 328 data-analytics job descriptions analysed in 2026, more than any other skill. Yet most people only use a tiny fraction of what spreadsheets can do.
Excel & Google Sheets Made Easy teaches you the formulas, shortcuts and tools that matter most — in plain language, with real examples you can type and try. Every example uses one small practice table, so you learn by doing.
