Microsoft PowerPoint is a presentation software program.

Microsoft Excel is a spread sheet software program.

PowerPoint uses a graphical approach to presentations in the form of slide show that accompany the oral delivery of the topic. This program is widely used in business and classrooms and is an effective tool when used for training purposes.

Excel lets you create tables that automatically calculate the totals of numerical values you input, print out tables in neat layouts, and create simple graphs.
