The correct answer is: Spreadsheet

A spreadsheet is a type of software that allows users to view, manipulate, and store data in a structured manner. Option A, an operating system, is incorrect as it is a foundational software that allows computer hardware to communicate with other software and perform basic functions. Option C, graph, is incorrect as it is a visual representation of data and does not involve data manipulation or storage. Option D, socket, is incorrect as it is a component used for network communication and is not directly related to data viewing, manipulation, or storage.
