Guide to Microsoft Excel for Scientists and Engineers

Microsoft Excel has a wide range of scientific functions that the average user would never encounter, let alone utilize, and students keen to use Excel to analyze and represent the results of their experiments are currently forced to wade through almost incomprehensible manuals on Excel. "A Guide to Microsoft Excel for Scientists and Engineers" gives scientific and engineering students an introduction to the use of excel for the analysis and presentation of experimental results, before going on to discuss some of the more advanced functions, such as modelling. Completely updated to cover the latest versions of Excel, including 2000, this text also includes new material on functions, statistics and the "Solver" tool. In addition, this book focuses on: formulas; charts; curve-fitting; equation solving; integration; macros; statistical functions; logic functions; databases; and macros.
