Arrange Spreadsheet

Data Input - these are values that the user may change 

Parameter Values - these are values that the user will not change, but are needed (not shown) 

Formulas used - this defines the problem Results 

To make the boxes, select the cells to be enclosed, choose Format/Cells/Border, choose Outline, and click OK. In the example above, the equation in cell B12 is = 1 — 0.01 temperature, which gives the same result as =1 — 0.01 B6.

A feature of PC spreadsheets is that the position of rows or columns can be changed at the touch of a key, so the sequence of the rows of activities can be rapidly altered, and the position of the columns varied to preserve the diagonal pattern of crosses. This exercise can be executed a number of times to reduce the scatter of the stars away from the diagonal line and reduce the communicating distances between the activities. This has been carried out, and the result is shown in Table 7.2, where it can be seen that the stars are clustered more closely around the diagonal line. The list now shows the activities arranged in a preferred order of sequence. 

The primary focus during validation is validation of the content of the spreadsheet itself. Nevertheless, items such as location of storage, security of cells and file, as well as access to the file have to be taken into account. The general validation approach for spreadsheets is not different from other validation approaches and can be arranged in three general sections (1) validation plan, (2) execution of the plan, and (3) validation documentation (protocol). 

When generating the model with ANNs, one of the precautions that must be taken into account is that the maximums and the minimums of concentrations and also the readings have to be in the training subset. In order to do this, it is useful to use a spreadsheet application to arrange the data, the first samples being the ones that contain maximums and minimums. The rest of the samples can be randomized. 

A spreadsheet is a collection of data entries text, numbers, or a combination of both (alphanumeric) arranged in rows and columns used to display, manipulate, and analyze data (Atkinson et al., 1987 Diamond and Hanratty, 1997). Microsoft Excel... 

The file Figure2.19f.in contains a list of the polar coordinates of the vertices on the unit sphere, arranged so that the 9, (p) values of each decagon are read in during execution of the programme in the sequence that all the 0 - values are read before the 4> - values. This order is convenient because most of the coordinate data for the structures were calculated on spreadsheets and so could be copied and then pasted [PASTESPECIAL command] into a NOTEPAD file as unformatted text. 

If the spreadsheet is constructed as shown in Figure 9-21, you can t use a formula in which a name is assigned to the concentration array in column F. This is becasue the formula in B7, for example, will use the concentration in F7 instead of the required F6. An alternative arrangement that permits using a name for the concentration [A]t is shown in Figure 9-22. Each row contains the concentration at the beginning and at the end of the time interval. The name A t... 

A spreadsheet, shown in Figure 18, can perform mathematical functions with any data arranged in columns and rows. By entering a simple equation into a cell, the program can perform operations in specific cells, rows, or columns. 

The spreadsheet is arranged as shown in Figure F.8. When e value of Lj Qfk is placed in cell A2 the equation for cell E5 is... 

Macros are special subroutines that can be called directly from the spreadsheet, either through Tools O Macro or (when pre-arranged) by direct selection from a menu, a toolbar, or with a shortcut key. We have already encountered numerous macros in this chapter they all have the syntax ... 

The phreeqc input file is shown in Table 8.1. Note that we use sulfate for charge balance, because it is the most abundant ion. The default definition of alkalinity in phreeqc is as calcite , which is what our analysis shows, so we simply enter that number (153 mg L-1). Under the keyword REACTION, a suitable combination of moles of HCl and number of steps is found with some calculation and a certain amount of trial and error. We specify the file name of the output file to ensure we get an output file with the essential data arranged for copying to a spreadsheet. The results are shown in Figure 8.2. 

Arrange the data with the repeats for a given variable going down the columns and the different variables across the rows as in spreadsheet 4.1. 

Arrange the data as shown in spreadsheet 4.8 with one factor going across the columns (the student in this case) and the other factor that contains replicates going down the column (forward or reverse pipetting). 

Each table follows a general format, with country of first approval/year the generic name the tradename first approved other tradenames source and methods of preparation where obtainable and the disease entity first approved. In order to make the tables simpler to use, the compounds are arranged in alphabetical order of their first tradename and, if desired, a searchable Excel spreadsheet is available from the authors. 

A spreadsheet consists of cells arranged in columns (labeled A, B, C,. . . ) and rows (numbered 1, 2, 3,. . . ). An individual cell is identified by its column letter and row number, for example, B3. Figure 3.3 has the identifiers typed into some of the cells to illustrate. When the mouse pointer (the cross) is clicked on an individual cell, it becomes the active cell (dark lines around it), and the active cell is indicated at the top left of the formula bar, and the contents of the cell are listed to the right of the equal sign on the bar. 

Microsoft Excel has a very useful program called Solver. To use this program, we must first arrange an equation to give a formula equal to a known value. Solver effectively calculates the formula in reverse, by starting with the answer of the formula (the known value) and, by iteration, solving for the value or values of one or more variables in the formula that results in the correct answer. (Other spreadsheet programs have similar problem solvers.)... 

When an Excel spreadsheet is opened, the page consists of blank cells arranged in rows and columns. Each cell is identifted by its column letter and row number. The individual mercury concentrations from the earlier example can be typed into separate cells, as can text such as column headings. In the sample spreadsheet page shown, text is typed into cells Al, Bl, A12, and A13, while the sample numbers and data are put in as shown. The data points are in cells B3 through BIO. The width of the columns can be varied to ftt the contents. 

Fig. 8. The data arranged in an excel spreadsheet the figure on the left displays the kinetic traces at all wavelengths, the figure on the right displays the measured sp>ectra.

From an array of values of cash flow on the spreadsheet arranged from n = 0 to n = 4, enter Al a5 into the vhlues box. 

The core of this problem concerns the specification of an acceptable plate arrangement, Le. length, width, spacing and number. The calculations are easier if they are done on a spreadsheet so that the interdependence of the variables can be seen instantly. The flowrates and concentrations are related by mass balance equations ... 

If you say y , you get a whole bunch of files with your data arranged in a way more convenient for plotting. The format is such that with minimal editing they can be read and used by spreadsheets and plotting programs. You get aU or none of them. They have extensions. kxy,. gxy,. hxy, and so on.
