Data Matters with Excel®

Requirements
You will be required to create histograms for the Data Matters projects. To create histograms in Excel, you will need the Data Analysis add-in. To check whether you have the add-in, select Tools. If one of the options is Data Analysis, then you can proceed.

If Data Analysis is not an option under Tools, select Add-Ins. Click on the box next to Data Analysis. If that box is not there, you or a computer administrator will have to use the installation discs for Excel to add the Data Analysis tools. If that cannot be arranged, you will have a very hard time doing parts of the projects described here.
