10 Must useful Microsoft Excel Shortcuts

Anurag

1) Addition: Alt + =
Adding or Sum is being used quite often. To ease out your work you can get to the end of a column or Row of your data and type ALT + symbol, a SUM function will appear with selected Row/Column. You just need to press ENTER to get the desired result.
2) Quick Access Functions: Shift + F3
This to INSERT FUNCTION without using a Mouse button clicking on (fx).
3) Reveal Formula: Ctrl + ~
If you’d like to get a quick view of the formulas that are being used in your Excel sheet, ‘Ctrl and ~’ will quickly reveal all. And to get Excel Back in a normal press the combination key again.
4) Turn Filters On/ Off: Ctrl + Shift + L
The more data an Excel sheet has, the more sensible it is to use filters to classify and analyze them easily. To turn on and off filters simply press: Ctrl + Shift + L (make sure the data you want to filter is highlighted/ selected).
5) Add Comments in a Cell: Shift + F2
To Insert a Comment to particular cell use SHIFT + F2.
6) Insert the Date & Time:
For the current time: CTRL + SHIFT + :
For the current date: CTRL + :
7) create a Chart: Alt + F1
This shortcut creates a chart out of the data in the current range (selected cells). Alt + F1 create a chart on the current sheet. F11 creates a chart in a new sheet.
8) Format a Cell: Ctrl + 1
If you need to format a cell or a group of cells but do not know the specific shortcut, hold ‘Ctrl and 1’ to open the “Format Cells” command box. From here, you can select the necessary formats.
9) Navigate between Worksheets: Ctrl + Page Up, Ctrl + Page Down
One way to save time when working in Excel is to move from worksheet to worksheet without using the mouse. Press ‘Ctrl and Pg Up’ to move one worksheet forward and press ‘Ctrl and Pg Dn’ to move one worksheet backward.
10) Apply the Currency Format: Ctrl + Shift + $
This shortcut applies the currency format to the selected cells – very useful when making financial reports.

Standard and Formatted Input / Output in C++

The C++ standard libraries provide an extensive set of input/output capabilities which we will see in subsequent chapters. This chapter will discuss very basic and most common I/O operations required for C++ programming. C++ I/O occurs in streams, which are sequences of bytes. If bytes flow from a device like a keyboard, a disk drive, or a network connection etc. to main memory, this is called   input operation   and if bytes flow from main memory to a device like a display screen, a printer, a disk drive, or a network connection, etc., this is called   output operation . Standard Input and Output in C++ is done through the use of  streams . Streams are generic places to send or receive data. In C++, I/O is done through classes and objects defined in the header file  <iostream> .  iostream  stands for standard input-output stream. This header file contains definitions to objects like  cin ,  cout , etc. /O Library Header Files There are...
