Capitolul 3

Intr-o bază de date realizată într-un program de calcul tabelar, o linie reprezintă o înregistrare. O înregistrare este un set de date care conține informații referitoare la un anumit obiect sau subiect. Aceasta poate fi considerată ca o entitate individuală în cadrul bazei de date, iar fiecare linie reprezintă o înregistrare distinctă. Astfel, într-un program de calcul tabelar, o linie reprezintă o înregistrare care poate conține diferite atribute sau câmpuri de date.

The correct answer indicates that the integer number represents the number of days that have passed since January 1, 2000. This means that the internal representation of the calendar data counts the number of days elapsed since the beginning of the year 2000.

Data formatting in Excel spreadsheets can be done based on certain conditions set by the user or using predefined templates offered by the system. The user can customize the formatting rules according to their specific requirements, such as highlighting cells that meet a certain criteria or applying different formatting styles to different data ranges. Additionally, Excel provides built-in templates that users can apply to format their data quickly and easily, saving time and effort. Therefore, the correct answer is that data formatting in Excel can be done based on certain conditions set by the user and using predefined templates offered by the system.

A simulation table must include a formula for calculation, explanatory texts, a group of empty boxes for displaying results, and a set of values for one or two variables.

The correct answer is that financial functions in Excel allow for a wide range of calculations, the ability to perform economic and financial analysis, and the calculation of depreciation. These functions provide users with the tools to analyze and manipulate financial data efficiently and accurately.

The correct answer is FV, which stands for Future Value. In this context, the person is depositing 80 RON every month for a period of 5 years. The Future Value function is used to calculate the value of an investment or deposit at a future date, considering the interest rate and the compounding period. In this case, the function will help determine the total amount accumulated in the deposit after 5 years.

The first statement is true because the VLOOKUP() function in Excel is used to search for a value vertically in the leftmost column of a specified range. The second statement is also true as the LOOKUP() function is used to search for values in a vector or matrix.

The formula in cell C9 is "=C7+C7*5%". When the value of the inflation index in cell C8 is 5.5%, the formula calculates the updated income by adding 5% of the income in cell C7 to the income in cell C7. Therefore, the correct answer is 126.

In a PIE chart, only one series of data is represented. A PIE chart is a circular chart that is divided into slices, with each slice representing a category or a proportion of the whole. Each slice's size is proportional to the value it represents in relation to the total value. Therefore, a PIE chart can effectively represent only one series of data at a time. It is not suitable for representing multiple series of data simultaneously.

The correct answer is "construirea modelului în foaia de calcul" which translates to "building the model in the spreadsheet". This means that the process of establishing the formatting parameters for the data in the spreadsheet is done during the construction of the model in the spreadsheet. This involves setting up the structure, layout, and formatting of the cells, columns, and rows to ensure that the data is organized and displayed correctly.

The correct answer is =PMT(). The PMT() function in Excel is used to calculate the periodic payment for a loan or an investment based on a constant interest rate and a fixed payment schedule. It takes into account the loan amount, interest rate, and the number of payment periods. By using this function, one can easily determine the repayment amount for a loan or the periodic investment required to reach a specific target amount.

The explanation for the given answer is that formulas in Excel contain both values and operators. They can also include numbers, dates, and text. However, they cannot contain the operators % and ^.

If the tax rate in cell C7 is changed to 15%, the formula in cell C9 (=C8*16%) will calculate the tax on the profit in cell C8 (1000) using the new tax rate of 15%. The calculation will be 1000 * 15% = 150. Therefore, the value displayed in cell C9 will be 150.

A performant spreadsheet program should allow for simultaneous work with multiple tables, graphical representation of data, and the use of linking and embedding techniques through DDE and OLE. Additionally, it should also have the ability to lock functions that are predefined for financial calculations.

The correct answer is "ştergerea liniei corespunzătoare din foaia de calcul" because deleting a record from a database typically involves removing the corresponding row from a spreadsheet or table. This action physically removes the data from the database, ensuring that it is no longer accessible or included in any calculations or queries. Using the appropriate command from the Data menu or pressing the Delete or Backspace keys may be valid actions in some software programs, but they are not the most common or standard methods for deleting a record from a database.

The correct answer is that sorting databases in Excel can be done based on three keys, two keys, or a single key. This means that Excel allows users to sort their databases based on multiple criteria or a single criterion, depending on their needs. Sorting by multiple keys can help organize data more effectively and provide more specific results, while sorting by a single key may be sufficient for simpler datasets.

In Excel spreadsheets, cells can be referred to using absolute addresses, names, relative addresses, or mixed addresses. Absolute addresses refer to specific cells by their fixed location, while relative addresses are based on the position relative to the current cell. Mixed addresses combine elements of both absolute and relative addresses. Names can be assigned to cells or ranges of cells to make them easier to reference. Bookmarks are not a valid way to refer to cells in Excel.

The correct answer is a combination of valid constructions in Excel. "Sheet2!C34" refers to cell C34 in Sheet2. "[Situatie_scolara.xls]Anul_1 !F6" refers to cell F6 in the worksheet Anul_1 in the Situatie_scolara.xls file. "A:B" refers to all cells in columns A and B. These are all valid ways to reference specific cells or ranges in Excel.

The modification of a record in a database can be done by either entering a new value in the corresponding field, or by using the command EDIT (F2). These options allow the user to update the data in the specific field that needs to be modified. The first option involves directly inputting a new value into the field, while the second option provides a shortcut command (EDIT or F2) to access and modify the field. Both methods achieve the same result of updating the record in the database.

The correct answer is that querying a database to obtain results in a distinct area requires the existence/definition of the following areas: the input data area, the output data area, and the criteria area. These areas are necessary for organizing and specifying the data that will be used in the query process. The input data area holds the data that will be used as input for the query, the output data area stores the results of the query, and the criteria area defines the conditions that the data must meet in order to be included in the query results.

The correct answer is that Excel commands can be accessed from menus and submenus, icons in the toolbars (Standard, Formatting, etc.), and the context menu.

The correct answer is "utilizarea modelului". In spreadsheet programs, the analysis of results is performed in the stage of using the model. This means that once the model has been constructed in the spreadsheet, it can be used to analyze and manipulate data to obtain desired results. The analysis of the problem and the design of the solution model are important steps prior to using the model, but the actual analysis of results occurs during the utilization of the model.

In Excel, the statements that are true are that you can write on multiple lines in a cell and the Merge cells option allows you to combine multiple cells.

The correct answer is "un câmp din structura bazei de date, mai multe câmpuri din structura bazei de date" because sorting keys can be single fields or multiple fields within the database structure. These fields are used to determine the order in which the data is arranged, allowing for easier searching and organizing of information within the database.

The correct answer is Excel, Lotus 1-2-3, and Quattro Pro. These three software tools are all spreadsheet programs that allow users to create and manipulate tables of data. They provide features such as formulas, functions, and formatting options to perform calculations and organize information in a tabular format. Access and Visual FoxPro, on the other hand, are database management systems, which are not specifically designed for creating tables of data.

The functions IRR, DDB, and FV are financial functions. IRR stands for Internal Rate of Return, which is used to calculate the profitability of an investment. DDB stands for Double Declining Balance, which is a method of depreciation commonly used in accounting. FV stands for Future Value, which is used to calculate the value of an investment or loan at a future date. These functions are specifically related to financial calculations and are commonly used in financial analysis and planning.

The correct answer is "permit realizarea de simulari in grafice, permit organizarea datelor in baze de date." This means that spreadsheet programs allow for the creation of simulations using graphs and the organization of data into databases.

The correct answer is "definirea zonei criteriu şi a zonei de ieşire" which means defining the criteria zone and the output zone. This implies that in order to extract information from a database in another area of the spreadsheet, both the criteria zone (to indicate the condition that records must meet) and the output zone need to be defined. This ensures that the desired information is filtered and displayed correctly.

The given functions =AVERAGE(), =COUNT(), and =MIN() are categorized as statistical functions in Excel. The AVERAGE() function calculates the average of a range of cells, the COUNT() function counts the number of cells in a range that contain numbers, and the MIN() function returns the smallest value in a range of cells. These functions are commonly used in statistical analysis and calculations.

Formulele în Excel sunt formate din nume (cuvinte rezervate precedate de semnul =). Aceasta este o caracteristică specifică a Excelului, unde utilizatorul trebuie să introducă formulele precedate de semnul "=" pentru a indica că este o formulă și nu o valoare statică. Această convenție ajută programul să facă distincția între datele statice și operațiile matematice sau logice pe care utilizatorul dorește să le efectueze.

The correct answer is that the arguments of functions can be other functions. This means that when using functions in Excel, you can use other functions as inputs to calculate the desired result. For example, you can use the SUM function as an argument in another function like AVERAGE to calculate the average of a range of cells. Additionally, in financial functions, the arguments refer to the same time period. This ensures that the calculations are consistent and accurate when analyzing financial data.

In order to perform a sorting operation, the input data needs to be provided. This input data is stored in the "zona de intrare" or the input zone. This zone holds the data that needs to be sorted and is necessary for the sorting operation to take place. The other options, "zona criteriilor" (criteria zone) and "zona de ieşire" (output zone), may be involved in the sorting process but are not specifically required for the operation to be performed.

A căsuță (casetă) din foaia de calcul Excel poate fi identificată prin adresa absolută, adresa mixtă, adresa relativă sau un nume atribuit în prealabil. Adresa absolută este o adresă fixă care nu se schimbă atunci când sunt efectuate operații de copiere sau mutare a celulelor. Adresa mixtă este o adresă care conține o combinație între o referință absolută și una relativă, ceea ce înseamnă că rândul sau coloana poate fi schimbată, dar nu și ambele în același timp. Adresa relativă este o adresă care se schimbă în funcție de poziția relativă față de celula de referință. Un nume atribuit în prealabil este o etichetă dată unei celule sau unui interval de celule pentru a le identifica mai ușor.

Protejarea componentelor modelului în Excel se realizează în etapa de construire a modelului în foaia de calcul. În această etapă, utilizatorul poate aplica diverse opțiuni de protecție pentru a asigura că anumite celule sau formule nu pot fi modificate accidental sau intenționat de către alți utilizatori. Aceasta ajută la menținerea integrității și securității modelului în timpul utilizării și partajării acestuia.

The correct answer is "utilizarea modelului". This is because the question is asking about the stage in which the input data is entered in spreadsheet programs. The first option, "analiza problemei şi proiectarea modelului de rezolvare", refers to the analysis and design stage of the problem-solving model, which does not involve entering data. The second option, "construirea modelului în foaia de calcul", refers to the construction of the model in the spreadsheet, which also does not involve entering data. Therefore, the only remaining option is "utilizarea modelului", which means using the model, and this is the stage where the input data would be entered in a spreadsheet program.

In the VLOOKUP function, the third argument indicates from which column the desired value is taken. The FALSE argument, placed at the end, indicates the need for an exact match in the search.

The correct answer is "utilizarea modelului" which means "using the model" in English. This suggests that the safety of children is achieved through the utilization or implementation of the model that has been previously designed and constructed in a spreadsheet. The other options mentioned, such as analyzing the problem and designing the solution model, or constructing the model in a spreadsheet, are not the final step in achieving child safety.

The correct answer is "secvenţe de instrucţiuni sau comenzi similare celor din limbajele de programare,elemente ce permit descrierea grupurilor de operaţiuni repetitive". This answer suggests that macros in spreadsheet programs are sequences of instructions or commands similar to those in programming languages, and they also allow for the description of groups of repetitive operations.

The implication of the rule "in formulas and functions, constants should not be used as arguments" is that it requires rewriting formulas and functions every time. This can lead to an inelegant or aesthetically unpleasing model. Additionally, this rule eliminates potential simulation capabilities and can result in incorrect results.

The first and third formulas and functions are correct. The first formula calculates the sum of "cant1" and divides it by either 3 or 5, depending on whether "cant1" is greater than "cant2". The third formula calculates the sum of "cantitate". The second formula is incorrect because it has a syntax error.

The first statement is true because a worksheet in Excel is similar to a workbook, which is a collection of worksheets.

The second statement is false because a chart can be saved in a separate sheet within the workbook, not necessarily in the sheet containing the data.

The third statement is false because a workbook can be saved with different file extensions such as .xlsx or .xlsm, not just .xls.

The fourth statement is true because in Excel, dates are stored as numbers in the internal memory, where each date is represented by a specific number.

The given answer states that the calculations performed by financial functions include the depreciation of assets using the straight-line method and the future value of a current investment. The straight-line method of depreciation evenly distributes the cost of an asset over its useful life, while the future value of an investment calculates the expected value of the investment at a future date based on the current value and the expected rate of return. Both of these calculations are commonly used in financial analysis and planning.

The answer is formatul funcției, descrierea succintă a funcției, zone distincte pentru argumentele funcției. In an Excel function window, these are the elements that are displayed. The format of the function refers to the syntax and structure of the function, while the concise description provides a brief explanation of what the function does. The distinct zones for the function arguments allow the user to input the necessary values for the function to calculate the desired result. The previous execution result is not displayed in the function window.

The components of a solving model can be arranged in different ways in a spreadsheet. One way is to place them in different spreadsheets, which means each component is in a separate spreadsheet. Another way is to arrange them in a cascade within the same spreadsheet, where each component is placed below the previous one. Both of these options are valid ways to organize the components of a solving model in a spreadsheet.

The correct answer is MX123 and Date?A1. These addresses are incorrect because they do not follow the standard format for mailbox addresses. The first address, MX123, does not include the necessary alphanumeric characters after the prefix "MX". The second address, Date?A1, includes a special character "?" which is not allowed in mailbox addresses.

The correct answer is that the dimension of rows and columns in Excel can be adjusted using the commands Format/Row/AutoFit and Format/Column/AutoFit Selection, the commands Format/Row/Height and Format/Column/Width, and also by using the mouse on the headers of rows or columns.

The correct answer is "un nume atribuit unei căsuţe din foaia de calcul" (a name assigned to a cell in the spreadsheet) and "o adresă absolută" (an absolute address). These elements can be arguments for the PV function because when using the PV function in a spreadsheet, you can refer to a specific cell by its assigned name or by its absolute address. This allows you to perform calculations based on the values in those cells.

Asistenţii (Wizard) sunt disponibili pentru componentele grafice şi funcţii în Excel. Aceşti asistenţi sunt instrumente utile care oferă ghidare şi asistenţă pas cu pas în crearea şi utilizarea graficelor şi funcţiilor în Excel.

The given answer includes the points that are strengths of spreadsheet programs, such as simulations, automatic recalculation of formulas and functions, implementation of financial, statistical, logical functions, and automation of tasks. These features enhance the functionality and efficiency of spreadsheet programs, allowing users to perform complex calculations, analyze data, and automate repetitive tasks. Additionally, the ability to display numerical data in multiple formats adds to the security of the system.

The data type in Excel cells is determined by the first character entered, as well as the evaluation results of system functions used and the evaluation results of constructed formulas.

The correct answer states that for creating simulations in a table with a variable, values for the variable should be entered in the first column (or the first row). Additionally, there should be an initial starting situation, and a criterion area should be defined to specify the restrictions.

The correct answer is "construirea modelului în foaia de calcul, utilizarea modelului". This means that loading the program product (spreadsheet program) is necessary in the stage of building the model in the spreadsheet and using the model. This suggests that before the model can be constructed and utilized in the spreadsheet, the program product needs to be loaded.

The correct answer is "un nume atribuit unei zone din foaia de calcul" and "o adresă absolută". These two elements can be used as arguments for the SUM function in a spreadsheet. A named range is a way to assign a name to a specific range of cells in a spreadsheet, and it can be used as an argument in the SUM function to calculate the sum of the values in that range. An absolute address refers to a specific cell or range of cells in a spreadsheet, and it can also be used as an argument in the SUM function to calculate the sum of the values in that specific cell or range.

The specific tool used in spreadsheet programs is called a "worksheet" or "spreadsheet." It is also referred to as a "foaie de calcul" in Romanian and "centralizator electronic" in Romanian, which both mean "worksheet" or "spreadsheet." The term "workbook" refers to a collection of multiple worksheets or spreadsheets. Therefore, all of the given answers are correct and can be used interchangeably to describe the specific tool used in spreadsheet programs.

The correct answer is addresses of cells, logical expressions, numeric or string variables, and formulas. In Excel, the arguments of functions can be the addresses of cells, which allow the function to use the data in those cells. Logical expressions can also be used as arguments to perform calculations based on certain conditions. Numeric or string variables can be used to store and manipulate data within the function. Finally, formulas can be used as arguments to perform complex calculations and combine multiple functions together.

Simulations in Excel utilize formulas and functions to calculate and model various scenarios. These formulas and functions allow users to input variables and parameters, which are then used to generate different outcomes. Tables of simulation are used to organize and display the results of these calculations in a structured manner. Graphs, both 2D and 3D, are used to visually represent the data and trends derived from the simulations, providing a clearer understanding of the results.

The correct answer states that the components of a model can be arranged in different worksheets or in a cascade within the same worksheet. This is true in Excel, as users can create multiple worksheets within a workbook and organize their data and calculations accordingly. Additionally, the answer states that for complex tasks, it is recommended to use macro commands. Macros in Excel allow users to automate repetitive tasks and perform complex operations, making them useful for handling complex tasks efficiently.

The correct answer is that the arguments of functions in Excel can be assigned names to ranges in the worksheet, logical expressions, other functions, and constants.

The correct answer is that the trendline can be defined in 3D charts, simulations can only be done using 3D charts, and multiple data series can be represented in a PIE chart. This means that the false statement is that the trendline can only be drawn in 2D charts.

The performance of spreadsheet programs is determined by the use of formulas and functions. Formulas are mathematical expressions that perform calculations and manipulate data within the spreadsheet. Functions, on the other hand, are predefined formulas that can be used to perform specific tasks, such as calculating averages or finding the maximum value in a range of cells. By utilizing formulas and functions effectively, users can efficiently process and analyze data, leading to improved performance in spreadsheet programs.

A simulation table is a zone in a spreadsheet that consists of at least two columns (or two rows) and a calculation formula. It is also an instrument for tracking the impact of changing the value of a variable on a calculation formula. Additionally, it serves as a way to concretize "What-if" questions.

In a database created in a spreadsheet program, a column represents a component of the database and also an attribute. It is a vertical arrangement of data that holds values for a specific field or characteristic of the database. Each column represents a different attribute or characteristic of the data being stored, and together they form the structure of the database. Therefore, the correct answer is "o componentă a bazei de date, un atribut" which means "a component of the database, an attribute" in English.

The given answer states that "constants are not used in formulas and functions," "worksheets are renamed with meaningful names," and "functions provide solutions for many complex problems from different domains." This implies that constants can be used in formulas and functions, worksheets should be renamed with meaningful names, and functions are versatile in solving complex problems from various fields.

The correct answer is "asigură vizualizarea înregistrărilor care îndeplinesc condiţiile de filtrare indicate." This is because the Autofilter feature in Excel allows users to filter and view only the records that meet specific criteria or conditions. It does not extract the results into a different area, but rather displays them within the existing data range.

The correct answer is that the occupied area of a simulation table should include the formula for calculation, the input values for variables, the area for results, and the output area. This means that in order to perform a simulation, all of these components are necessary. The formula for calculation is needed to determine how the variables will be manipulated, the input values are necessary to provide the initial data for the simulation, the area for results is where the calculated values will be displayed, and the output area is where the final results will be shown.
