Understanding Rows, Columns, and Cells

Excel organizes data into a grid made up of rows, columns, and cells. Let’s explore what they mean:

  • Rows: Horizontal lines of data, identified by numbers (e.g., 1, 2, 3).
  • Columns: Vertical lines of data, identified by letters (e.g., A, B, C).
  • Cells: The intersection of a row and a column, where you can input data. For example, the cell at column A and row 1 is called "A1."
