Default FILL HANDLE

I use copy and paste often...but I have never heard of the fill handle; I
just use the shift key and fill down until I decide to stop.

Please, what is and where is the "fill handle"?

Thanks,

FLKulchar

Default FILL HANDLE

Hi.

Select a cell and in the border at the bottom right you will see a small
black box and that's the fill handle.

Hover over it and left click and drag and you fill down

Double click it and the fill down will be automatic as far down as there are
data in the adjacent column.

When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that
introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the
question.
