No. You can type in lower or upper case and you can include spaces. When the formula has been entered Excel will change cell references and function names to uppercase and remove unnecessary spaces.
No. You can enter anything in Excel in upper or lower case.
No. You can type capital or small letters; cell references are not case sensitive.
You can enter them in either form, but they will be converted to uppercase after they are entered.
case does not matter; space does
Formulas can be entered in any case, but after entering them they will convert to uppercase. Spaces can also be entered with no problems, and the formulas will still work.
You can use both numbers and cell references in formulas.
hard-coding values because it allows for easier updates and maintenance of the worksheet. By using cell references, you can change the value of a single cell and have that update reflected throughout the worksheet, improving efficiency and accuracy. Additionally, cell references make formulas more flexible and dynamic, accommodating changes in data without the need to rewrite formulas.

formulas
Yes. Formulas can contain all sorts of things, including absolute and relative cell references.
Formulas with absolute references.
Yes, formulas are entered into cells in a spreadsheet.
It doesn't matter, but after it is entered, Excel will automatically convert it to uppercase.
Not exactly. Every cell has an address. When using the addresses in formulas, they are referring to a cell. When a formula is copied, what happens to the cell references differs, depending on the type of cell reference. See the related question below.Not exactly. Every cell has an address.

Cell references are usually relative. While typing a formula you could also make cells mixed or absolute. See the related question below.
If you type formulas with numbers directly into them, then every time you make changes to the spreadsheet, you will need to directly change the formulas too. It also makes them more difficult to copy. It also means that you will not see the figures that are in the formulas, just the result. If a formula references a cell, then you can see the figures that are used and the cells can be changed without having to adjust the formulas and the formulas can be copied to other cells and will look at the correct cells to do other calculations. For those and other reasons, you use cell references and not numbers in formulas where possible.
