Does new Maverick OS have a word or excel substitute program? [View all]

I was going to install Maverick on my iMac (to replace my 10.6.8 os) but got a message saying my Microsoft Word and Excel programs won't operate in Maverick. I do use those programs occasionally. Are the programs in Maverick that are used to replace Word and Excel?

I am not very techie, I know just enough to do what I need to do on the iMac, so please be understanding if I am asking a really stupid question.

Also, how do the Maverick users like it so far?

Thanks for any help any DU'er can provide.
