As someone with an MBA (I know… forgive me father for I have sinned) I actually had been thinking that simple Python and maybe something like Jupiter might actually be a great alternative for spreadsheets while teaching business.
I not knocking spreadsheets- they’ve obviously stood the test of time. I feel their weakness is that the formulae are hidden and you’d need to click on individual cells to make sure their isn’t a logic error.
- jdiez17 4y agoDon't get me wrong, I think Jupyter Notebooks are great if you are a programmer or want to learn programming. But there's a massive usability gap between downloading an application and "open the command line, run pip install jupyter, oh pip is not installed, google the error message, copy and paste this command from a random website, try again, etc". It's better now with JupyterLab Desktop, but that's only been around for a few months.
