In excel I click on a block of data and click on the graph I want and it appears. I use Python (Pandas) and Matplotlib pretty proficiently and I haven’t found a need to sub those for an excel graph. No picky data types. No installing and teaching someone Jupiter or Pandas or an IDE. The anti tech sales guy can just change the data in the cell, or pull the little box down. Or double click in the graph where he wants to insert a title.
You’re fighting a losing battle here. I have need for Python in what I do, but none of my Finance partners do. Coding has to get much much simpler before it will ever replace excel.
I’d bet money you are also the person who wonders why the world uses Windows over Linux for many tasks. When you can answer why regular people choose Excel over code and why regular people choose Windows over Linux, you’ll get it, and you can make a positive change in code to bring Linux and Code more mainstream.
