- dangoldin 13y agoHaha - when I was a quant I used it all the time too. We had Perl jobs that would generate Excel reports that would then be distributed to the various PMs so that they could look into the details. I think the finance industry runs on Excel.
- ardemue 13y agoAny industry runs on Excel I guess. I work in aeronautics and everyone who works on a computer maintains some Excel spreadsheets. It's everywhere but so few people know how to use formula, pivot tables, etc, that it has become a real competitive advantage to master them.
