describe where and how Excel should produce the statistics.

Click the data analysis command button to instruct Excel that you intend to calculate descriptive statistics.

In the input section of the dialog box (descriptive statistics), identify the data to be described.

In the out section of the dialog box (descriptive statistics), describe where and how Excel should produce the statistics.

Throughout the analysis, it is clear that Excel is a powerful tool that still remains largely under used. Accurate application of Excel leads to quality analysis (Remenyi, 2010). However, it is important to have good knowledge of the commands in varied windows. Discussion Question Part 2 The data analysis conducted clearly shows the power of Excel. Therefore, I should consider learning more about the program. My intention is to apply Excel in future in other uses besides statistical analysis. It will be beneficial to me if I can apply the knowledge learned from statistical analysis. Understanding the descriptive statistics knowledge picked from this study will advance my knowledge on conducting studies, analyzing data, and presenting the results.]]>
