1.5 Spreadsheet Magic
You may not know it yet but I am a spreadsheet wizard. Not only are
spreadsheets very useful for organizing information and performing
calculations, but you can also use them to have a lot of fun – and practice
magic! Don’t believe me? Try it out!
What you do:
1. Open a new Excel spreadsheet.
2. Choose two symbols (numbers, letters, etc.).
3. Create a rectangle of ANY size using only these two symbols.
E.g. My symbols are A and B, and I made a 6x6 rectangle
What I do:
1. I will add another row and column of symbols to your rectangle.
E.g. I added As and Bs to make a 7x7 rectangle.
What you do:
4. Change one symbol to the other symbol.
What I do:
2. Magically figure out which symbol was changed.
What you do:
5. Try and figure out how I magically know the answer… then you too can
be a spreadsheet wizard!
