Making a Google Sheet
There are three ways to create a new Google Sheet:
- Click the "Sheets" icon in figure \(\PageIndex{1}\).
- Go to a folder in Google Drive, right click and choose Google Sheets.
- Make a copy of an existing Google Sheet, move it to the folder you want and edit it appropriately.
I usually use option (2) for creating a new sheet, and only use the Google Sheets app when I am searching for a special sheet.
First thing we will be doing is making a google sheet. There's multiple ways to access sheets but we will start with the way that is easiest to keep organized.
