Where’s the immediate code? I think those are basically Excel formulas, which in context, are not what Excel users would consider “code”.

- chrisseaton 6y agoWhat do you think is the difference between Excel formulas and code?
- qwertox 6y agoUsing an inbuilt Excel formula vs creating a formula with VBA?
- chrisseaton 6y agoBut they're both code.
- qwertox 6y agoIf you agree to the statement that any accountant which uses Excel formulas to do bookkeeping is also a software developer, then yes, you and OP are correct.
- chrisseaton 6y agoWhy do you think you have to be a 'software' developer to write code though? Lots of people write code, using lots of applications and devices - spreadsheets, MATLAB, database queries, it's all code.
- pieno 6y ago> If you agree to the statement that any accountant which uses Excel formulas to do bookkeeping is also a software developer They are as much a software developer as they are a writer because they write e-mails; a presenter because they present the annual accounts to the CFO; and a cleaner because they put away their mugs at the end of the day (usually.. hopefully..) You don’t have to be someone because you sometimes do something that other person also does.
