Analyze and report

1. Analyze and report

Welcome to Module Three, Analyze and Report. Spreadsheets can hold millions of numbers, formulas, and text. Making sense of all that data can be difficult without a summary or visualization, especially when presenting the data to others. In this module, we are going to explore the data visualization options in Google Sheets, such as charts and pivot tables. We will discuss how Google workspace integration makes it easy to share your charts and tables in Google Docs and Google Slides. We'll also look at ways to automate repetitive tasks using macros. Google Sheets has a number of different charts and graphs that allow you to present and summarize data in a sheet. Each chart type represents a different way to display data, and can be customized with background colors, fonts, and more. Understanding the message you are trying to share will help you determine which of the various Google Sheets chart types best conveys your message. You can choose from line, column, bar, pie, histogram, scatter diagrams, and even maps. But sometimes, creating the chart you need from the spreadsheet you have may be a little difficult. Let's take a look at some of the common issues and how to solve them.
