1. Suppose you want to start writing some notes on a book you are reading, and you want to store them on your computer. Which would be a better suited program to use for this purpose: a word processor or a spreadsheet? (You may answer that both are equally well/badly suited, if you wish.) Explain your answer.


• ANSWER #1:


• It would be easier and better suited to put the notes on a spreadsheet, because it would be much easier to organize the notes, place the notes in a table, and even add color to better define the notes.



2. Spreadsheets allow us to present charts, graphs, and other visualizations of data. Describe one reason why the ability to visualize data can be valuable.


• ANSWER #2:


• The visualization of charts is valuable because it makes the date much easier to comprehend, as well as making it more visible to see a trend in the data.
