In Microsoft Excel, the ability to define numbers will aid you in formula calculations. In the familiar Einstein equation, E=mc^2, “c” is a constant that stands for the speed of light (value approximately 3×10^8 m/s). Knowing that constant’s value is critical to solving the equation. A computer, however, will only know that value if it’s defined. Microsoft Excel allows you to define a symbol, letter or even a word that will be replaced in your equation with a value upon calculating, thus creating your own constant. Launch Excel. Enter a value into a spreadsheet cell and press “Enter.” Click to select the cell you just filled. Click the “View” menu and check that the Formula bar toolbar is showing (check mark next to it). Click into the cell name box on the far left of the Formula bar. Replace the cell designation (i.e. A1, B2) with the name of the constant you want to have that value. Click into an empty cell. Type the equals sign followed by the constant or name you just defined. Pres
