TYPES OF INFORMATION IN EXCEL
Excel contains two types of data in the cells. These are called labels and values
When you enter data into a spreadsheet such as MS Excel, is just like typing in a word processing program, BUT you have to first click the cell in which you want the data to be placed, before typing the data.
All the words that describe the numbers are called labels. The numbers are called values
FORMATTING OF LABELS AND VALUES
The default formatting (meaning how it will look before you change anything) labels (composed of letters) are all left justified (aligned to the left) and the values (composed of numbers) are all right justified (aligned to the right) in their cells. Being aware of how they are formatted (their alignment) will help you to identify errors made in the future.
For example " 0.012" would be aligned to the right since it is a value BUT "0..012" would be left aligned because no number contains two decimal places and excel will interpret it as a label (word).
