They don't run as smoothly compared to Google Sheets. Google Sheets recently updated its cell limit to 10 million, but it still pales in comparison to Excel's 17 billion cells per spreadsheet. That makes Excel the better tool for dealing with big data. The good news is that most of us aren't dealing with data sets that large, so Google Sheets works just fine. Excel has more powerful formulas and data analysis features, including built-in statistical analysis tools and extensive data visualization options. Google Sheets offers the "lite" version of most of those features, but it's nowhere near as in-depth.
Venn diagram showing the similarities and differences between Google Sheets and Excel. Overview: Must-know Google Sheets terms To kick things off, let's cover some spreadsheet terminology you'll need to know when using Google sheets: Cell: A single data point or element in a spreadsheet Column: A vertical set of cells Row: A horizontal Panama mobile number list set of cells Range: A selection of cells extending across a row, column, or both Function: A built-in operation from the spreadsheet app you'll use to calculate cell, row, column, or range values, manipulate data, and more Formula: The combination of functions, cells, rows, columns, and ranges used to obtain a specific result Worksheet (Sheet): The named sets of rows and columns that make up your spreadsheet; one spreadsheet can have multiple sheets Spreadsheet: The entire document containing your worksheets 1.
How to create a spreadsheet There are four ways to create a new spreadsheet in Google Sheets: Option 1: Click the multi-colored "+" button on your Google Sheets dashboard. Arrow pointing to multi-colored "+" button. Option 2: Open the menu from within a spreadsheet and select File > New > Spreadsheet. Arrow pointing to "Spreadsheet" button. Option 3: Click the multi-colored New button on your Google Drive dashboard and select Google Sheets > Blank spreadsheet. Arrow pointing to "Blank spreadsheet" button. Option 4: Type "sheets.new" into your browser. This will create a new blank spreadsheet (or a populated Google Sheets template if you choose one of those; for this Google Sheets tutorial, though, you should start with a blank spreadsheet).
