Tables in Keynote don’t just present data, but allow you to sort and process it, as well. For example, you can add and multiply columns of data, or apply other functions and formulas to calculate results from numerical values in your tables. You can also sort columns of data by ascending or descending values. And you can apply conditional formatting rules that allow you to immediately see when cells contain the data values you specify.
Some table operations, such as formulas and functions that perform mathematical operations, depend on cells containing numeric values.
To learn about how to work with numbers, sort, and apply conditional formatting to cells, see the following topics:
Tables in Keynote are equipped to perform mathematical calculations in conjunction with the suite of functions and formulas built into iWork. For detailed information about how to use the hundreds of iWork functions, choose Help > Formulas and Functions Help, or go to Formulas and Functions Help on the web.
