Introduction to the Internet
What is internet?
The Internet or simply the Net is a worldwide network of computer networks. It is an
interconnection of large and small networks around the globe.
The applications of internet include:
1) Exchange messages using e-mail (Electronic mail).
2) Transfer files as well as software.
3) Browse through information on any topic on web.
4) Communicate in real time (chat) with others connected to the Internet.
5) Search databases of government, individuals and organizations.
6) Read news available from leading news groups.
7) Send or receive animation and picture files from distant places.
8) Set up a site with information about your company’s products and services.
Assignment: Read on the history of the Internet.
The Web
The Web is a collection of files that contain hyperlinks which allow you to move easily from one
document to another. These web pages use the Network as a route to arrive at your computer.
The Web browser
This is a piece of software that lets you visit the World Wide Web, a vast interconnected group of
files stored on and accessed by computers around the world. The key to the Web is its interwoven
connections: the hyperlinks you work with to access specific files on your screen.

Hyperlink
This is an automatic connection – when you click on specific text or a picture on the screen you
are automatically brought to another screen, another, and so on; you’re working through layers of
information.
These Web pages can be very simple or very sophisticated with text, graphics (pictures), sound,
animation or even a small application (program), or information from a data base. The information
brought to your screen is through a connection to the Internet, usually in the form of a modem,
telephone line and Internet service provider (ISP).

2
Accessing web sites
In this era of advanced technology and high-speed Internet connections, you can find information
on virtually anything. In the space of just a few minute, you can find recipes for Fried rice or learn
all about the theory of learning. To search the internet, you need a web browser or simply, a
browser. Example of browsers are the Internet explorer, Google chrome, Safari, Firefox, etc. To
visit a particular web site, you need to type the web address of the web site in the URL (Uniform
Resource Locator).

Figure 1: The URL/address bar

Searching Google for Information
There are various search engines/ web sites. One of the most common among them is the Google.
Here are some ways to search Google for information.
1. Either this or that

Sometimes you are not sure that you have correctly remembered the information or the
name you need to start your search. Simply put in a few potential variation of what you’re
looking for, and separate them by typing the “|” symbol. Instead of this symbol you can
also use “or.” Then it’s easy enough to choose the result that makes the most sense. For
example:

3
Figure 2: Search window 1
2. The power of the asterisk
When you cannot recall one key word, phrase, or number you need in order to find what
we’re looking for, you can turn to the powerful “*” symbol. Just use this in the place of the
word/phrase you can’t remember, and you should be able to find the results you’re looking
for.
Example:

 Figure 3: Search window 2

3. Whole phrases
Framing the search term within quotation marks is the simplest and most effective way to
find something specific and in the exact order you typed it in. For example, if you type in
the words I’m picking up good vibrations without quotation marks, the search engine will
show the results where these words appear in any order on a website, as opposed to the
specific order in which you typed them. If, on the other hand, you type “I’m picking up
good vibrations” within quotation marks, you’ll get only those results where these words
appear only in the order you typed them in. This is a great way to find the lyrics to a song
when you only know one line from it. For example:

E- Mail
E-mail (electronic mail) is the exchange of computer-stored messages by telecommunication. It is
important for everyone to have e-mail accounts so that one can receive messages electronically.
There are various types of e-mail accounts one can create. This include Yahoo, Google, Hotmail,
live, ymail, and many more.
Creating G-Mail account
To create a Gmail address, you will first need to log in to the Gmail website by typing
[Link] in the address bar and press the enter key from the keyboard. The Gmail home
page will be displayed to you, where u can either sign in ( for an existing account ) or you click on
the Create account link. Gmail will redirect you to the Google account signup page. You’ll need
to provide some basic information like your name, birth date, gender, and location. You will also
need to choose a name for your new Gmail address. Once you create an account, you’ll be able to
start adding contacts and adjusting your mail settings.

6
To create an account:

[Link].
Click Create account.

Figure 4: Gmail page Figure 5: Sign up page

 Figure 9: Welcome page

Signing in to your account

 When you first create your account, you will be automatically signed in. Most of the time,
however, you will need to sign in to your account and sign out when you’re done with it.
Signing out is especially important if you are using a shared computer (for example, at a
library or office) because it prevents others from viewing your emails.

To sign in:
1. Go to [Link].
2. Type your user name (your email address) and password, then click Sign in.

To sign out:

In the top-right corner of the page, locate the circle that has your first initial (if you have already
selected an avatar image, it will show the image instead). To sign out, click the circle and select
Sign out.

create designer-quality illustrations with only a few clicks of your mouse. When you create a SmartArt
graphic, you are prompted to choose a type of SmartArt graphic, such as Process, Hierarchy, Cycle, or
Relationship. Each type of SmartArt graphics contains several different layouts. After you choose a
layout, it is easy to switch the layout or type of a SmartArt graphic. Most of your text and other content,
colors, styles, effects, and text formatting are automatically carried over to the new layout.

When you select a layout, placeholder text (such as [Text]) is displayed, so that you can see how your
SmartArt graphic looks, nor is it displayed during a slide show. However, the shapes are always displayed

 SECTION III
Spreadsheet with Microsoft Excel
A spreadsheet is a table of values arranged in rows and columns. Each value can have a predefined
relationship to the other values. If you change one value, therefore, you may need to change other
values as well.
Spreadsheet applications (sometimes referred to simply as spreadsheets) are computer programs
that let you create and manipulate spreadsheets electronically. In a spreadsheet application, each
value sits in a cell. You can define what type of data is in each cell and how different cells depend
on one another. Examples include:
Google Sheets - (Online and free)
 iWork Numbers - Apple Office Suite.
 Microsoft Excel.
 OpenOffice
Because we are more familiar with Windows operation systems, Microsoft Excel is the choice for

Formulas in Excel
Formulas are equations that perform calculations on values in your worksheet. A
formula always starts with an equal sign (=). An example of a simple is =5+2*3 that
multiplies two numbers and then adds a number to the result. Microsoft Office Excel follows the
standard order of mathematical operations. In the preceding example, the multiplication operation
(2*3) is performed first, and then 5 is added to its result.
You can also create a formula by using a function which is a prewritten formula that takes a value,
performs an operation and returns a value. For example, the formulas =SUM(A1:A2) and
SUM(A1,A2) both use the SUM function to add the values in cells A1 and A2. To write a formula
in excel, click or select the cell you want the result to appear and type the = sign, then enter the
formula and press the enter key.

40
Examples:
1. Add the numbers 3 and 5: =3+5
2. Subtract 10 from 20: =20-10
You can also use cell reference/address in formula.
Example:
1. Add the content of cell A20 and B20: =A20 + B20
Example of functions:
1. =SUM(A3:A5) adds the content of A3, A4 and A5; i.e A3 + A4 +
A5
2. =PRODUCT(B3,H5) multiply the content of cell B3 and H5; i.e B3
* H5

Create a Formula with Function

1. Click the cell in which you want to enter the formula.
2. Click Insert Function on the formula bar
Excel inserts the equal sign (=) for you.
3. Select the function that you want to use.
NOTE: If you're not sure which function to use, type a question that describes what you want to
do in the Search for a function box (for example, "add numbers" returns the SUM function), or
browse from the categories in the ‘Or Select a category box’.
4. Enter the arguments.
5. After you complete the formula, press ENTER.

41
Use Auto Sum
To summarize values quickly, you can also use
AutoSum.
1. Select the cell where you would like your
formulas solution to appear.
2. Go to the Home tab, in the Editing group,
3. Click AutoSum, to sum your numbers or
click the arrow next to AutoSum to select a
function that you want to apply.

Freeze Panes
When you freeze panes, Microsoft Excel keeps specific rows or
columns visible when you scroll in the worksheet. For example, if
the first row in your spreadsheet contains labels, you might freeze
that row to make sure that the column labels remain visible as you
scroll down in your spreadsheet. A solid line indicates that the row
is frozen to keep column labels in place when you scroll.

1. On the worksheet, select the first row below the row you want
to keep visible or the first column to the right of the column that
you want to keep visible when you scroll.
2. On the View tab, in the Window group, click the arrow below Freeze Panes.
3. Then click on the freeze panes option.
