PREFACE.
This book covers basics of ICT like Windows and Accessories, Ms Word Processor,
Ms Excel (Spread Sheets), Ms Power Point (Presentation), Ms Access(Data Bases),
Ms Publisher and web Design moreover each of them having over 25 resourceful
questions for reference and simplicity.
In trying to write this book, I have made it so simple (Simple — Complex) bearing in
mind that most learners/students have insufficient or no background knowledge
about the use of computers.
This book does not only predispose on the student‘s use in school but to anyone
outside there that may be willing to learn how to launch and use IT basicprograms.
It is however important to note that the author has carefully studied the habitual
National Examination computer studies/Sub ICT syllabi and has carefully
complied content and resourceful papers from resourceful heads, so interesting,
and moreover comprehensible to cater for this field of teaching ICT at different
levels. It is therefore important for the students and teachers to snatch themselves
a copy so as to ease the teaching — learning process.
This manuscript is also an inspiration from the 0‘ level and recently rationalized
secondary schools A‘ level Curriculum for ICT and Sub math that affect tertiary and
university entry prerequisite.
It has also been an inspiration that has been as a result of constructive criticism
from our fellows in the field and my own students that have driven me to come up
with such organized manuscript as a need to strengthen computer skills in schools
and at individual level.
Compiled content herein is to guide the teacher and learner during practical based
sessions and partly theory but majorly aims at equipping learners with computer
skills.
NB. To my fellow readers/users; I am aware of a number of ICT study pamphlets

and text books and guides that have already been published and steadily supplied
country wide. However, “Computer Studies/ICT Practical Guide” as a guide book
has steadily and carefully been compiled and revised ‗by the teachers who have
tested the hiccups in delivering of content in this noble field.

DEDICATION
I dedicate this Guide book to all my students of The Science Foundation College
and St. Michael High School Ssonde who have used part of this book‘s content to
their benefit.
I cannot satisfactorily rate the contribution of my family in particular my wife
Nabwire Kauthar, my beloved mother NURIAT KOMUSHANA and my brother
Qaasim Abdallah and family whose hobby is to read and get informed on how to
better their day today living and standards.

INTRODCTION TO WORD PROCESSING.
An electronic Word processor is application software that enables the user to

create, edit, format and print more professional text-rich documents.
A word processor (more formally known as document grounding/preparation

system) is a computer application used for the production (including composition,
editing, formatting, and possibly printing) of any sort of printable material
Computer word processing is application software that encompasses the

production of professional looking documents. These documents may include the
following; memos, circulars, preparing letters, greeting cards, doing simple office
works to mention but a few.
In a typical office where documents are typeset, formatting and editing of such
documents becomes a nightmare where manual modes of document production,
filling and transmission are used.
In order to minimize and eliminate such hustles, several electronic devices and
services by computerized systems and electronic typewriters have been developed
for more efficiency and effectiveness in document production. There has always
been a need to come up with better writing tools to improve on efficiency and
legibility of the written work.
Therefore, computerized word processing systems have gotten easy to use

document edits and formats features capable of making documents look more and
more business like if well mastered. Some people and organizations earn their
living by producing documents for others using computerized systems.
Therefore, it is important that learners get introduced to the basic practical

knowledge and skills of word processing in order to be able to produce and
communicate documents better.
ELECTRONIC WORDPROCESSORS
Word has got a number of versions and these include the following
a) Ms Office 97, d) Ms Office 2007

b) Ms Office 2000, e) Ms Office 2010.
c) Ms Office 2003, f) Ms Office 2013 and 2016

Examples of word processing software/applications include;
i. Ms Office word processor. v. Apple Works.

ii. Word pad. vi. Professional writer.
iii. Lotus 1, 2 and 3. vii. Word Pro
iv. Corel Word Perfect viii. Office org.
ADVANTAGES OF WORD PROCESSOR PROGRAMS
• Easier to use due to automated features such as Word-wrap, autocorrect

and auto complete, find and replace feature etc.
• They have superior editing tools such as spelling checker, the Thesaurus,
etc., hence making editing easier.
• Can store documents for future retrieval.
• They have superior formatting features that make a document more
appealing to the reader.
• The user can produce multiple copies more easily.
• Copy and move (cut) operation make it easier to manipulate a document.
FEATURES OF A WORD PROCESSOR WINDOW:

Most word processors have common features. Each task appears in a rectangular
area called an application window
1) Title bar.
A title bar indicates the task currently running. On its right are the minimize,
restore and close button.
2) Menu bar.
The menu bar provides the user with a group of commands. Each command has a
drop down list, when click used to create and manipulate a document.
3) Toolbars/formatting tool bar
Toolbars consist of buttons of commands (icons) that provide shortcuts to

commands available in the menu bar. The two default toolbars are the standard
and formatting toolbars.

5) Status bar
The status bar is the communication channel between the user and the application
program. It displays the current page, section line and activities such as file saving
progress.
CREATING A DOCUMENT USING MICROSOFT WORD.

While Word 97-2003 look alike and are compatible, Word 2007/10 radically deviates
from these versions in the look and menu layout. There is no File menu and once text
is highlighted/blocked, a floating formatting toolbar is displayed above the selected
text. Moreover, documents saved in 2007/10 format cannot be opened in the previous
version unless you save the file in compatibility mode.
The appearance a Microsoft word processor window
This is the work area where you create your document. It resembles an ordinary piece
of paper.

QUESTION 3.
(i) Using the suitable word processing software, type this document as it is.
HUMAN BEINGS
Most infants are guided through life by a parent or guardian and taught how to
talk, walk, eat and generally behave. The socialization process begins as soon as
we are born when we being to imitate people around us, copying the shapes and
noises in our environment. Many other people and circumstances affect our
appearance, attitude and behavior, such as work, lifestyle, ethnicity, family,
environment, peer group (friends), gender, media etc.
Human beings are very different throughout the world and opinions of what
constitutes a natural or nurtured human being differ enormously. Without
socialization, an individual would bear little resemblance to any human being
defined as ―normal‖ by the standards of his or her society.
There have been some instances where a person has been deprived of the
assistance of a parent or any other social and human presence. These beings are
often referred to as feral people meaning ―wild‖.
An example of feral people was the Wolf-infants of Midnapore who were reportedly
found in a wolf den in a Bengal forest in 1920. The infants, age two and eight,
walked on all fours, preferred a diet of raw meat, howled like wolves and lacked any
form of speech.

Initially, nine countries placed bids for the 2018 FIFA World Cup, but Mexico later
withdrew from proceedings, and Indonesia's bid was rejected by FIFA in February
2010 after the Indonesian government failed to submit a letter to support the bid.
During the bidding process, the three remaining non-UEFA nations (Australia, Japan,

QUESTION 14
a) Type the document shown below exactly as it appears using Word Processor
of your choice. Save the document as trees.
Introduction:
The term ―tree‖ is used in computer science to denote a particular type of abstract
data structure.
Trees contain data in structures called nodes, which are in turn linked to other
nodes in the tree. Every tree has a primary node called a root, from which all other
branch nodes in the tree

Root node
Figure 5
Leaf node
Descends; In continuance with the botanical naming system, they have no

descendants, these are called nodes.
Why should you use trees?
Primarily, trees are useful for organizing data in a manner that makes it efficient to
retrieve it. To illustrate this, is a picture of collection of data organized in linked list
structure. A binary tree is made up of nodes that can have most two offspring
(children). The root node is the node that is not a child of any other node, and is
found at the top of the tree structure. A node with no children is referred to as a
leaf node. Nodes that are not root nodes or leaf nodes are often referred to as none-
leaf nodes.

QUESTION 19
Type the text below using a word processing p1gram: choosing word processing
software.
Word processing is using the computer to enter, store, manipulate, and print text
in letters, reports, and books and so on. Once you have used word processing, you
will probably wonder (like million others before you) how in the world you ever
survived without it.
As more word processing packages come on the market, choosing the right software
can become very confusing. Nevertheless, there is probably a word processing
packages that will serve your needs .As you begin looking, ask yourself these
questions:
i. What type of document am I
ii. Now processing?
iii. What types of features do I
Needs?
Want?
Document types can range from simple letters and memos to proposals, reports,
legal documents, books newsletters, scientific papers, form letters, and so on. The
point is matching the features you need with the features in the software packages.
For example, if you, write articles that require references, you will need the
footnoting features; if you develop a newsletter, having the multicolumn layout
feature would superscripts (X2+Y2) and subscripts (A21); and if you send
―personalized‖ form letters the mail-merge feature is a necessity.
A number of add-on programs are available to enhance the functionality of word

processing packages. These include:
On-line thesaurus
Spelling checker
Grammar checker
Style checker
Idea processor (outline)

What you can do with word processing is limited only by your imagination and
willingness to learn the system. Good luck in your computer-assisted writing
adventures-now and in the future!
(i). Insert the header the word ―Tips‖ on the left hand corner and ―word
processing on the right hand corner.
(ii). Bold the heading font size 22 — point underline and centre it.
(iii). In paragraph starting with the ―document‖ bold the second statement.
(iv). Make 2 the superscript of X and Y in expressing (X2+Y2) and 21 the
subscripts of A in the expression (A21).
(v). Insert bullets on the list of functionality of word processing packages
(vi). Insert a footnote of your name on the left and page number on the right and
corner.
(vii). Use the appropriate format to replace the word ―notation‖ with the other of
the same meaning.
(viii). Indent the whole document by ―0.5‖ to both the left and the right hand side.
(ix). Insert a clip picture in the middle of the paragraph, which begins with
―document‖.
(x). Save your work under your name.
(xi). Print and copy your work.
QUESTION 20
Historical images of Apartheid in South Africa
HUMAN RIGHTS.
Apartheid consisted of numerous laws that allowed the ruling white minority in
south Africa to., segregate, exploit and terrorize the vast majority: Africans, mostly,
but also Asians and colored-people of mixed race. In white-ruled South Africa,
black people were denied basic human rights and political rights. Their labor was
exploited, their lives segregated.
Under Apartheid, racist beliefs were enshrined in law and any criticism of the law
was suppressed. Apartheid was racism made law. It was a system dictated in the
minutest detail as to how and where the large black majority would live, work and
die. This system of institutionalized racial discrimination defied the principles of
the United Nations charter and the universal declaration of Human Rights.
In 1976 the United Nations unanimously condemned the elevation of one of the
―homeland‖, Transkei, into an independent state because it remained dependent on
South Africans. Not one country in the world recognized the new state. In 1982
almost one million black South Africans were transferred to another country.
Swaziland……… without their having any say in the matter.

Ultimately, Blacks demonstrated, held strikes and rioted over such discriminatory
practices.
As a result diplomatic pressure mounted abroad for change. In 1990, Nelson

Mandela, who had devoted his life to democracy, equality and learning for all South
Africans, was released from prison after serving almost 30 years for those beliefs.
He was elected president of the African National Congress the following year, and in
1993 received the Noble peace prize on behalf of all South Africans who suffered
and sacrificed so much to bring peace to their country. On10th, May 1994, Nelson
Mandela was elected South Africa‘s first black president, in that country‘s first
truly democratic election.

QUESTION 21
Typeset the text below using a word processing program:
ON DECISION TO BUY
The members of the Exchange require that forward payment for shares be made to
reduce defaults. On making the buying order, the client will fill in client
information, an order form and sign a purchase transfer form and then pay for the
number of shares he/she is willing to buy and the broker will issue him/her with a
receipt. On the day the order is executed at the exchange, the broker then will send
his/her buying client a purchase contract note showing the number of shares
purchased, the price per share and the commission chargeable. A purchase
contract note is a legal document that acts as proof of ownership until the share
certificate arrives therefore it must be kept safely.
At the same time, the broker forwards the signed purchase Transfer Form to the
registrar through the exchange. The registrar upon receiving your transfer form

through your broker issues a new certificate in your name via the same broker.
This certificate is a legal document confirming ownership and should be kept
safely.

QUESTION 27
Using Microsoft word, type the statements below and answer questions that follow.
IRR analysis is generally used to evaluate the projects cash flows, rather than the
income from the project that would be shown on an income statement. (Also known
as the profit and loss statement) Why? Because income on a P&L reflects
depreciation, but depreciation is not an out-of-pocket expense. For instance, if
revenue of $10,000 is reduced to $7000 of income because of a $3000 depreciation
deduction, you still have the use of the full $10,000. So the cash flow figure of
$10,000 is usually the more instructive one to look at. However, if you are very
concerned about the appearance of your income statement (for example, if you
anticipate putting the business up for sale or seeking major financing in the future,
or if you are under stockholder pressure for increased income) you may decide that
the income figure is more appropriate to use.
How do you compute the IRR? The easiest way to use a good financial calculator. If
you have one, or don‘t want to take the time to learn to use one, you can also use
the present value tables located in Business Tools.
Required:
i. Apply line spacing of 0.5 to the document.

QUESTION 28
Using Microsoft, type the statements bellow exactly as they are and answer the
questions that follow.
Tips for financing a Major Purchase
Don‘t fall for expensive service contracts. Service contracts that are pitched to you
when you buy a piece of business equipment are often a good deal for the supplier
but not for you. In most cases, the amounts you would spend on a service contract
is wasted money. This is especially true in the case of generic equipment that
normally carries a warranty any way if something is going to go wrong, it will
generally do so in the first 30 to 60 days, when your warranty should cover the
problem.
There may be situations where service contracts are a good deal. For example, if
the equipment was custom-built and expected to need regular maintenance in the
future, if spare parts and knowledgeable labor will be hard to find, or if getting
repairs done immediately is extremely important to your business‘s operation, you
might decide to purchase a service contract on a trial basis.
Compare the NPV of the loan payments. If you have decided to purchase a major
asset and are planning to take out a loan, a good way to compare the options
available is to do a net present value analysis of your cash flows under the various
interest rates and terms your local leaders have available. Your cash flow
projections should consider the loan payment out flows as well as their venue
inflows that would result from your purchase or projects.
Required:
a) Format the title to, font size 18, centered, bolded with upper case.
b) Justify the statements.
c) Drop the first letters of the paragraph.
d) Format your work to be double spaced.
e) Apply two columns to your document.
f) Save your work as your name
QUESTION 29
Use of DDT welcome
Malaria is the biggest health problem in Uganda and in general, Africa. Its toll in
Africa is the heaviest yearly. Ninety percent of malaria deaths occur in Africa. It is
responsible for over 300 million cases of accurate illness each year leading to

deaths. On the economic front, malaria costs Africa more than $12 billion
annually. It has slowed economic growth in Africa countries by 1.3% per year. Had
the disease been wiped out decades ago, $100 billion would have been added to
sub Saharan Africa‘s current GDP of $300 billion this year.
Malaria transmission occurs by mosquitoes moving to houses, entering during the

early evening resting indoors and, at some point during the night, landing on
humans and biting. During the act of biting the mosquitoes might acquiremalaria
parasites and become infected, or if already infected, they might transmit malaria
to another human.
DDT residues on house on house walls can alter this sequence of mosquito
behavior.
The non-contact repellent action of DDT residues can prevent a malaria mosquito
from entering a house. If the mosquito enters, in spite of repellent action, then the
contact irritant action might cause it to exit before biting. If the contact irritant
action falls then contact toxicity might still result in mosquito death, after
prolonged contact with DDT - treated surfaces.

QUESTION 30

The Storks and the Urchin
Of all the boys in the town, the most forward in singing nonsensical verse was
always the same one who had begun teasing the storks, a little urchin not more
than six years old. The young storks, indeed, fancied him a hundred years old,
because he was bigger than either their father or mother and what should they
know about the ages of children, or grown-up human beings!

All their schemes of ravage were aimed at this little boy; he had been the first to
tease them, and had been the first tease them, and he teased them still.
The young storks were highly excited about it, and the older they grew the lessthey
were inclined to endure persecution. Their mother, in order to pacify them, at last
promised that they should be revenged, but not until the last dayof their stay in
that place. Hans Christian Andersen

A Data Flow Diagram (DFD) is a graphical representation of the ―flow of data

through an information system, modeling its process aspects. A DFD is often used
as a preliminary step to create an overview of the system, which can later be
elaborated.
In the late 1970s data-flow diagrams (DFDs) were introduced and popularized for
structured analysis and design. DFDs show the flow of data from external entities
into the system, they showed how data moved from one process to another, as well
as its logical storage.
There are only four symbols:

(i) Squares representing external entities, which are sources or destinations of
data.
(ii) Rounded rectangles representing processes, which take data as input, do
something to it, and output it.
(iii) Arrows representing the data flows, which can either, be electronic data or
physical items.
(iv) Open-ended rectangles representing data stores, including electronic stores
such as databases or XML files and physical stores such as or filing cabinets
or stacks of paper.
Below is a sample of a data flow chart showing what happens when you make a

Six Reasons Remote Workers Are Good for Business

Inc.com, May 11
When it comes to workplace flexibility, allowing employees to work from somewhere
other than the office, or at times other than from 9 to 5, can make a big difference
in both productivity and worker retention. Simply put, working remotely is good for
the bottom line on several levels: remote workers are more productive, stay longer,
and report higher levels of happiness. Office distractions aside, not having to deal
with the friction of simply getting into the office is huge for some employees who
are less stressed not having to commute.
In terms of worker productivity, a recent Stanford study found call centre workers
working from home outperformed peers in the office because they took shorter
breaks and used fewer sick leaves. They also reported higher levels of happiness
and quit less often. However, some workers didn‘t do as well at home due to
loneliness so it‘s important to make sure remote work is a good fit according to
each employee‘s personality. A Gallup study found that not only do remote workers
log more hours, but also they‘re slightly more engaged than their office
counterparts. Specifically, the research showed people who worked remotely part
time were the most engaged due to their ability to enjoy the best of both worlds-the
opportunity to have in-person relationships with others in the office, while also
being able to reap the benefits of working from home, such as fewer distractions.
Remote workers are less stressed and happier to contribute, making them more
loyal to the company. The reasons are:
Table 7.
 Remote workers are more productive and stick around longer

 Employees who work from home are more engaged
 Remote workers are less stressed
 You save money on real estate and utilities
 You hire from a wider talent pool
 You can reduce your carbon footprint

c) Copy the work from page 1 and paste it into page 2.
d) Insert the page number as page X of Y.
e) Make page 2 layouts to be in landscape form only.
f) Justify your work and insert footnote on the last paragraph: BYCHRISTINA
BESMARAIS Contributor, Inc.com
g) On page 1, make left and right indentation 6 mm and 17 mm respectively on

paragraph one only.
h) For the title, remove the underlining, bold the title and make it uppercase. .
i) Make a drop cap as ‗dropped‘ in the first paragraph with orange font colour
j) Print the entire file remote worker

POWER POINT
(ELECTRONIC PRESENTATION)
A presentation program is computer program/application software that is used to
display information normally inform of a slide show.
It is important to note that communicating effectively to bigger audiences is a

challenge to many people. However, the versatility of ICTs has played a big role in
enhancing the ease and impact of the presentation process.
Therefore, presentation program helps the presenter with a wide range of tools to
clearly structure his ideas and offer the participants with multimodal information
that is so engaging.
There are many areas where power point can be used, these include;
a. Professional education. (work-related)

b. Entertainment.
c. General communication.
Presentation programs can either supplement or replace the use of older visual aid
technology, such as pamphlets, handouts, chalkboards, flip charts, posters, slides
and overhead transparencies.
A presentation program (power point) typically includes three major functions i.e.
i. An Editor that allows texts to be inserted and formatted.

ii. A Method majorly for inserting and manipulating graphic images.
iii. A Slide show that is a system to display the content.
Examples of presentation packages/software include the following;
 Microsoft power point

 Harvard graphics.
 Open office presentation
 Coral presentation
 Lotus freelance graphics
 Keynote.
With presentation, texts, audios, graphics, movies and other objects are positioned
on individual pages or slides in a given presentation.
Starting Microsoft PowerPoint.

Terms used in PowerPoint.
Slide views.
1. Slide Sorter: a window that arranges all slides in one screen in horizontal
rows. This kind of view is useful to make changes to several slides at a time.
Slides can also be re-arranged in any order. Changes may include;
Rearranging,
Deleting, moving,
Copying among others. All these are important in a slide sorter view.
2. Normal View: it can also be called a slide view. A single slide and can add text,
delete or modify the slide contents. It is the main working window in the
presentation. The slide is shown full size on the screen.
3 Notes Page View: Allows one to view the Notes Pane better add and modify
additional notes to a selected slide. Our text placed on the slide.
Other terminologies used in PowerPoint presentation.
4. Design temperate: This is a co-ordinate packaged deal. It is created so that

even though different slide types can have different layouts and graphics, the whole
presentation goes together as an attractive package.
5. Transition: Slide transmissions are visual movements as one slide changes

another.
6. Animation and animation schemes: these are visual effects applied to

individual items on the slide such as graphics, tittles or even bullet point.
7. Slide master: this is a default design temperate/parent slide template which

other child slides by default take it‘s formatting. All slides in a presentation are
designed using the font colors and styles and graphics in a slide master.

8. Ribbon: This is a strip of buttons across the top of the main window.
Multimedia in PowerPoint.
This is both audio/sound, video and pictures but in motion/movement state.
9. Video/movies clips: Video clips are added to enhance your presentation. This
can show authentication, movement or simulated movement, which makes the
presentation more interesting. Movement is either by click of the mouse or
automatic.
10. Hyperlinks.
A hyperlink is an element in an electronic document that links/leads you to

another place in the same document or to an entirely different document. Typically,
you click on the hyperlink to follow the link. Hyperlinks are the most essential
ingredients of all hypertext systems, including the World Wide Web.
11. Sound.
Sound as with video or movie clips, is added to enhance your presentation. If for
example your presentation is about weather, as sound clip of thunder can be
added. Clicking on the sound clip will activate the sound.

ELECTRONIC SPREADSHEETS
(Ms. EXCELL).
Throughout the ages, people have always wanted to calculate. Tools such as the
abacus were invented by the earl Chinese to help keep track of large numbers.
About thirty years ago, students only had pen, paper, slide rules and mathematical
tables to help them in their mathematical examinations. There were no such things
like calculators and certainly, no personal computer.
Calculators eventually became an everyday tool and certainly helped to speedup

calculations and improve on the accuracy. Even then, they weren‘t really good
enough to solve complex problems or deal with large amount of repetitive work.
With advancement in technology, spreadsheets were developed.
An electronic spreadsheet: is application software used to calculate, organize and

analyze numerical data.
Or
It can also define as the intersection of rows and columns.
Or
One can also say that it is a piece of software used to work out calculations.
A spread sheet can do a lot more than simply adding up a column of numbers
spread sheets can handle financial calculations for a large business, calculate
Probability or even other statistical information, do complex trigonometry and make

colorful graphs and charts.
Examples of spreadsheets applications include;
(i) Microsoft Excel,

(ii) Lotus 1-2-3
(iii) Corel Quattro Pro.
(iv) VisiCalc
(v) Ms -DOS
(vi) Open Office.Org Calc
Components of an electronic spreadsheet.
• Worksheet - A rectangular grid made u of rows and columns:
• Database - Enable the •user to perform functions such as sort, filter, subtotaling
and consolidation on worksheet data. A spreadsheet file can also be saved with a
.dbf extension to make it accessible from other applications using a db engine

• Graphs - Visual representation of data on a chart.
Advantages of Electronic spreadsheets.
• They have large worksheets compared to manual spreadsheets.

• They automatically adjust the result whenever a value is changed in a cell(s) that
is referenced by a formula.
• They have superior editing and formatting features hence producing neat work.
• Easier entry of data due to typing aids such as auto complete, autocorrect, copy
and move
• It is possible to forecast or predict the outcome of changing values in one or more
cells.
• Analytical graphs or charts lets one provide visual representation of data from a
worksheet.
• Easy management of large amount of data using data management features such
as sorting, filtering, data validation and subtotaling.
Applications of Electronic Spreadsheets
• Statistical analysis such as mean, standard deviation, variance etc.
• Accounting such as balance sheet preparation, loan repayment, and mortgage

and investments analysis.
• Forecasting — What if analysis, solver, goal seek and scenario in most

spreadsheets evaluate the effect of changing a value to achieve a certain goal for
managerial purpose.
• Mathematical and scientific solution such as arithmetic, trigonometric, rounding

off and multiplication.
Features of a work sheet (Work book basic features)
Apart from the title bar, Menu bar, Standard toolbar and Status bar: found in Word
processing, Spreadsheets have the following additional features.
1. Formula bar. Is an area where a cell entry or a formula is displayed before being
entered into the selected cell
2. Worksheets. A worksheet is the area made up of rows and columns where data
is entered. In Excel, a spreadsheet file is referred to as a workbook which consists
of one or more related worksheets.
3. Cells. A cell is an intersection between a row and a column. A column is a

vertical arrangement of cells labeled A, B, C while a row is the horizontal
arrangement labeled 1, 2, 3.

Worksheet tabs. These are located at the bottom of a spreadsheet. They show the
number of worksheets in the workbook. Note that one worksheet may have several
pages.
4. Searching and sorting: this gives the u, ability to search the worksheet for any
phrase, number or even other texts. It even makes the user scroll between the
search results.
5. Import and export: spreadsheets can be transferred onto and off the mobile
phone using a window explorer on the d. Spreadsheets can also be e-mailed as
attachments, from within the spreadsheet application.
A workbook window.

PERFORMING CALCULATIONS IN A WORKSHEET

1. Using basic formulae.
A formula is a mathematical expression used to solve mathematical problems. A
formula must start with an equal sign (=) while cell addresses are used as operands
instead of values.
a. Arithmetic operators.
• These mostly follow the rule similar to mathematical concept of BODMAS.
I.e. whatever is in parenthesis is evaluated first. Multiplication and division
are evaluated from left to right while addition and subtraction are evaluated
last.
Summary of operators used to create formulae.
Table 8
Symbol Description Example
/ Division = A2/B2
* Multiplication =A2*B2
+ Addition =A2+B2
- Subtraction =B2-A2
b. Relational operators
A relational operator returns either true or false depending on the magnitude of the
value being evaluated. Summary or relational operators

Table 9.
Symbol Description Example
= Equal to =A2=B2
> Greater than =A2>B2
< Less than =A2<B2
<> No equal to =B2<>B2
<= Less than or equal to =A2<=B2
>= Greater than or equal to
2. Cell Referencing
There are three types of cell referencing used when creating formulae and
manipulating cell(s), content:
a. Relative referencing. When.‘ you copy a formula that contains cell references,
say A3, the references adjust to their new location. E.g. If C1 containing a formula
=A1+B1 is copied to C2, the reference changes to A2+B2.
b. Absolute referencing. The reference is4ikde to a specific address and does not
change even if the formula is copied to another cell. In Excel an absolute cell
reference is made by placing a dollar sign before the referencing. $A$2, i.e. if the
result in C1 is 170 if absolute reference is used, 170 will be copied to C2.
c. Mixed cell referencing. This is a combination of relative and absolute reference,

e.g. $A3 or A$3. In the first case the column reference is absolute while the row is
relative; in the second case the column reference is relative while the row reference
is absolute.
2. Using in-built functions
A function is a predefined formula used to perform calculations. A function must

also start with an (=) sign followed by the function name and arguments.
Arguments are numeric, logical values or text enclosed in parenthesis. E.g., in
=SUM (A3:F3), SUM is the function that adds the range A3 to F3 which is the
argument.
Functions are categorized according to the nature of problems they work on. These
include:
• Mathematical
• Statistical
• Logical
• Date and time.

3. To use a function from any category:
• On the Formula menu, click Function. Alternatively, click the fx button on

the standard toolbar.
• Select insert
• In the function dialog box displayed select the category.
• In the function list box, select a function.
• Specify the function argument then click OK.
Figure 10
4. Using Mathematical Functions.
• Commonly used mathematical functions are:

• SUM () - Adds all the value in the selected range of cells. For example, if A3,
B3 and C3 contains 20, 50, and 80 respectively, =SUM (A3:C3) returns 150.
• ROUND () Rounds a number to a specified number of decimal places. Zero
rounds off the number to the nearest integer. E.g., =ROUND (49.769,1)
returns 49.8, while
=ROUND (49.69, 0) returns 50 and 70 respectively.
• SUMIF () — conditionally adds the specified cells according to the set
criteria. =SUMIF (A3:A1O, ―>= 1000‖), returns a value if, and only if, the sum
is greater than or equal to 1000.
• PRODUCT ()- Multiplies all the values in the argument. Eg, =PRODUCT (40,
3, 2) returns 240.

5. Using statistical functions.
• The commonly used statistical functions are:

• AVERAGE () — Returns the arithmetic mean of its arguments. E.g., if A3, B3
and C3 contains 20, 50 and 80 respectively, =AVERAGE (A3:C3) returns75.
• COUNT ()- Counts the number of cells that contain numbers within a range.
E.g., =COUNT (A3:C3) returns 3.
• COUNTIF - Conditionally counts the number of cells within a range that
meets a given condition. E.g., if A3, B3, C3, D3 and E3 contains 20,50,80,60
and 45 respectively then =COUNTIF (A3:E3, ―>50) returns 2.
• MAX 0 - Returns the largest value in a set of values or within a range. E.g.,
=MAX (A3:E3) for the set values above returns 80.
• MIN () - Returns the least value in a set of values or within a range. E.g.,
=MIN (A3:E3) returns 20.
6. Using logical Functions
The commonly used statistical functions are:
IF ( ) - Returns a value or label if a condition you specify evaluates to TRUE and

another if it evaluates to FALSE. Eg, if; A3,B3,C3,D3, and E3 contains a set of
marks 35,50,80,60 and 45 and grades are to be awarded as follows:
80 - 100 A
60 - 79 B
40 - 59 C
Below 40 Fail,
To assign a grade, use;
=IF (A3>=80, ―A‖, IF (A3>=60, ―B‖, IF (A3>=40, ―C‖, ―Fail‖)))
• AND () - Returns true if all its arguments are true or false if any argument is
false. E.g., =AND (3+2=5, 2+2=4) returns true.
• OR () — Returns true if any of its arguments is true or false if both
arguments are false. E.g., =OR (3+2=7, 2+2=4) returns true.
• NOT ( ) — Negates the unary operand. E.g., =NOT (.3+2=5) returns false.
THE VLOOKUP FUNCTION.
NB. It‘s important to note that this function is only applicable in Subsidiary ICT (A
‗level) but not at O‘level. This is according to UNEB standards. But it is vital if
students at all levels understood how the function is applied.

The V in VLOOKUP stands for vertical. Use VLOOKUP instead of HLOOKUP when
your comparison values are located in a column to the left of the data that you
want to find.
THE VLOOKUP SYNTAX

VLOOKUP: this is a function that looks for a value in the left most column ofthe
table and then returns a value in the same row from a column you specify.
By default the table must be sorted in ascending order
Function
VLOOKUP (Look up_value, table_array,col_index_num ,[range_lookup])
Lookup value - The value to search in the first column of the table array. Lookup
value can be a value or a reference. If lookup_value is smaller than the smallest
value-in the first column of table_array, VLOOKUP returns the #N/A error value.
Table_array- Two or more columns of data. Use a reference to a range or a range

name. The values in the first column of table_array are the values searched by
lookup_value. These values can be text, numbers, or logical values. Uppercase and
lowercase texts are equivalent.
Col_index_num- The column number in table_array from which the matching

value must be returned. A col_index_num of 1 returns the value in the first column
in table_array; a col_index_num of 2 returns the value in the second column in
table_array, and so on. If col_index_num is:
i. Less than 1, VLOOKUP returns the #VALUE! Error value.

ii. Greater than the number of columns in table_array, VLOOKUP returns the
#REF! Error value.
Range_lookup- A logical value that specifies whether you want VLOOKUP to find
an exact match or an approximate match:
i. If TRUE or omitted, an exact or approximate match is returned. If an exact

match is not found, the next largest value that is less than lookup_value is
returned.
The values in the first column of table_array must .be placed in ascending
sort order; otherwise, VLOOKUP may not give the correct value. For more
information, see Sort data.
ii. If FALSE, VLOOKLUP will only find an exact match. In this case, the values
in the first column of table_array do not need to be sorted. If there are two or
more values in the first column of table_array that match the lookup_value,

the first value found is used. If an exact match is not found, the error value
#N/A is returned.
Remarks
 When searching text values in the first column of table_array, ensure that
the data in the first column of table_array does not have leading spaces,
trailing spaces, inconsistent use of straight (‗ or ‗) and curly (‗ or ―) quotation
marks, or nonprinting characters. In these cases, VLOOKUP may give an
incorrect or unexpected value. For more information
 When searching number or date values, ensure that the data in the first
column of table_array is not stored as text values. In this case, VLOOKUP
may give an incorrect or unexpected value. For more information, see
Convert numbers stored as text to numbers.
 If range_lookup is FALSE and lookup_value is text, then you can use the
wildcard characters, question mark (?) and asterisk (*), in lookup_value. A
question mark matches any single character; an asterisk matches any
sequence of characters. If you want to find an actual question mark or
asterisk, type a tilde (~) preceding the character.
7. Using date and time functions
Some date and time functions include:
 TODAY () - Returns a number that represents today‘s date. The function
takes no arguments. E.g., =TODAY () returned 09/01/2008.
 NOW () - Returns the current date and time formatted as date and time. It
takes no arguments. E.g., =NOW () returned 19/02/2007 00:02.
• DATE () — Function Returns a serial number that represents a particular
date. Ms Excel uses year 1900 serial number1. E.g., =DATE (107, 1, 4)
returns January 4, 2007. Year = (1900+ 107), month=l, day =4.
• HOUR () ,MINUTE() or SECOND ()- Functions returns the current hour as
number 0 to 23, minute from 0 to 59 and seconds from 0 to 59 respectively.

MICROSOFT OFFICE ACCESS
(DATA BASES).
A database is a collection of arranged data in a way that allows access retrieval,

and use of the data.
A database is an organized collection of data. It is considered to be organized

because the data is stored in categories that are accessible ma logical or practical
manner. Data can be anything that has significance to the organization the system
is serving.
Examples of paper databases
1. Television guides 5. Libraries
2. Dictionaries 6. Schools
3. Receipt cards 7. Business directories
4. Telephone books 8. Electricity
etc.
Examples of Computerized data bases.
1. Data base systems in banks
2. Phone inquiry systems
3. Organizations like water
4. Fight information.
Data base software or database management system (DBMS) allows the user to
create, access and manage a database. Most PC databases consist of a collection of
tables organized in rows and columns.
Common terms used in data base

a. Files:
A file is a large organized data structure that contains related data such as records.
Files are used for storing programs and data in secondary storage. This is
extremely important since the main memory is volatile:
b. A Record:
Every entry of data is referred to as a record. A record is a group of related items
that we can treat as a single group. A record is a row in a table that contains
information about a given person, product, or event. (An individual entry in a table)
c. A Field:
A field is a column of similar information or group of vertically arranged data that
contains similar, information of the same data type. Or it can be a column in the
table that contains specific piece of information within a record.
d. Table structure:
This refers to the number of fields, field name (s), field length and data types in a
database table.

A field name is assigned to each field to identify the different fields.
e. Field length.
This is the maximum number of characters that can be stored for data in a
particular field.
The data type of a field specifies the type of data that the field can contain.
f. Data Validation:
This is the process of comparing the data entered with a set of predefined rules or
values to check if data is acceptable.
Examples of data types used in Data base:
a. Text type: This contains letters, numbers or special characters.
b. Numeric type: This contains numbers only.
c. Currency type: This contains dollar, pound cents etc.
d. Date and time type: This contains text of any kind or length.
e. OLE object: object linking and embedding. It includes objects, graphics or other
binary data.
f. Lookup wizard: When the value that you need exists in another table
or from a list of statistical values you use a lookup wizard to help you establish a
link to the table or define the combo box that will display the list of values on a
form or report other data type may include;
g. Boolean type
Examples of database soft wares include

i. Micro soft access iv. Lotus approach
ii. Micro soft visual v. Corel paradox.

WEB DESIGN.
Introduction
Web design is a process of planning and creating a website. While designing
websites, texts, images, digital media, interactive elements and tables can be used
by the web designer to produce an outstanding website that can be seen on the
web browser.
Web design basically deals with developing preliminary web pages
A web design program/application is a computer program that is used to create,
edit and upload web pages and websites.
Examples of web design software/application include;
i. Html-kit tools.
ii. Serif web Plus
iii. Coffee Cup Visual Site Designer.

What is a web site?
One can define a web site as a collection of related web pages.
Or
This is a document available on the World Wide Web that is created using html
(Hyper Text Markup Language) and can be viewed with an internet browser. For
instance Google, Netscape, explorer among others.
A web page can contain graphics, image, text, links and other multimedia
components. A web page can be made up of a number of separate paged
documents. It is normally a collection of documents that make up a website.
A home page: this is main page or the cover page of the web document that
contains an index or table of content to the rest of the documents.
Usually, a web site after being fully developed/designed, it is hosted on at least one
web server that is accessible via a network such as a the internet network, or any
other available private network.
The most common way to get a web site is to feed in or enter that Uniform
Resource Locator (URL).
• A Uniform Resource Locator is a unique address of the file that is accessible
over the internet.

INTRODUCTION TO BASIC HTML.
A html stand for Hyper Text Markup Language. It is specifically a language for
displaying web pages. It is not a programming language but a markuplanguage.
A markup language is a set of markup tags.
Tags majorly give the browser instructions on page display. They include
thestarting tag (<) and the closing tag (>) they are normally enclosed in angle
brackets i.e.
<Html>. They normally come in pairs e.g. <h1> and </h1>. The first tag in the pair
is the “start tag” and the second is the “end tag”.
A html file is a text containing small markup tags.
A markup tag is one that tells the web browser how to display the page. AHTML
must have an htm or html file extension. A HTML file can he created using a simple
text editor.
Let‟s try to work out with HTML
In window environment, follow the following steps.
1. Click start on the task bar
2. Select all programs
3. Select accessories
4. Select notepad.
Here, the first tag on your html document is <html>. This tells your browserthat
this is the start of an html document.
The last tag should be </html>. This tag tells your browser that this is the end of
the html document.
The text between the <head> tag and </head> tag is the header information.
Header information is not displayed in the browser window.
The text between the <title> ta and </title> tag is the title of your document. The
title is displayed in your browsers‘ caption (title bar).
The text between the <body> tag and Thody> tag is the text that will be displayed in
your browser.
Example;
<Html>
<Head>
<Title> title of the page </ title>
</head>
<Body>
This is my first home page this text is bold 
</body>
</html>
Save the file as ―home page.htm‖ or homepage.html‖ on your desktop.

Elaboration;
In the above example tag and tag makes the text between bold.
Open the file you have just created by using the browser on your computer.
(Internet explorer, Firefox or opera)
You should then be able to see an address in the dialog box for example
“C:/desktop/homepage.htm” this is if you are using windows XP. And for windows
7, one hou1d be able to see file:///C:users/usernarne/Dsektop/homepage. htm
Saving a html file:
 Select file (Alt + F) then you will be presented with a dialog box
 Select Save As.
 Make a new folder and name it whichever name you want. Then open it.
 Type ―page 1‖.html on file name
 Select the destination/file location
 Then save.
Changing colors:
To change background colors, keep the other line written and follow the following
steps;
 <BODY BGCOLOR= ―#CCFFCC‖>
</BODY>.
Note: if the background colors are specified that is not one of the known colors,
thenthe browser will usually pick the closest of these colors to use.
Formatting tags. (Bolding)
We can make things bold by
 = <BODY>something or what you want to bold cool</BODY>
 Cool
 What we are trying to tell the browser is that at the start making things
bold
 And at the stop making things bold.
Formatting tags (italics)
The same principal applies to italics
 <BODY>something<| |
 rz‘ cool‘</BODY>.
Something really cool.
Underlining
 <BODY>something or what you want to underline </>really

 cool</BODY>

Something really cool
Font sizing
To change the font size, you need to first add the font tag
 First add the tags.

 <BODY>something to font size
 cool</BODY then specify a SIZE attribute.
 <BODY> something really <FONTSIZE=6>cool</BODY>
i.e. something really cool
