I am using Excel for about more than 30 years, I first used "Multiplan" on an amber colored (bulb) screen of 15 inch. All these years I just used a few formulas which results are a bit comparable with this course. (mostly I combined several formulas to get the almost the same results) Seldom worked with financial data in Excel, I work mainly with data about employees (P&O data) and about objects like ships and their inspections. And most courses are based on financial data. And even after more than 30 years experience, I am still learning. Your small courses are the best I have ever seen in these years. And this collection of most valued functions for data analyzing is just a Pearl. And maybe it's my bad, but it looks like Excel is developing more and more new formulas lately?(to let you buy new versions 🙂?) I am a fan.

I use a combination of the functions you listed to create powerful excel tables and aggregate data using advanced logic. I work with arrays and multiple criterias a lot and i must say excel is indeed the bread and butter for all data analysts out there. It's good to know how to code on python and build complex machine learning models but we must not forget that real life data us rarely clean and 80% of the time is actually spent on excel making sense of the data before anything else can be done.

There is a mistake in 25:06 regarding the trim function. The function removes spaces from the beginning and the end of a string but also removes extra spaces between words leaving only one space. In power query the respective function only removes from the beginning and the end, not spaces between words.

In the IFS section, for this particular case, wouldn't it be better to use SWITCH? Indeed, in this case, the expression, that is, the left part of the logical test, is the same, and it can be lengthy. With SWITCH, you state it as the first argument, then you have condition/value_if_true pairs and you can end with a default value, skipping the TRUE. The formula is shorter and easier to understand, it seems.

@MyOnlineTrainingHub

8 ай бұрын

Hi Paul, not in this case because each condition and value_if_true requires a different logical test. That is, there isn't one logical test that you can put in the SWITCH expression argument that will apply to every value/result pair. The first logical test is testing if it's > 90 and the second one is testing if it's =90.

@@MyOnlineTrainingHub : spreadsheets would be better if they were simpler and more generic. when i need to analyze volumes of data and have programming style flexibility, i do it with SQL or a programming language. it's sad that Excel keeps adding not much used features but the one thing it should have done right, it hasnt. namely, not silently dirtying data during import. i rarely use Excel for any real data analysis or transformations, because having certainty about the data you imported, and having access to checking results (inverting transformations etc) is just too hard in Excel, and even many other spreadsheet software, which tends to look up to Excel. You can manage some summary data dashboards in Excel but, it's an uphill battle always. Anyways, my point was that you can have more flexibility by keeping those two things as separate concerns/functions: generate a list and sorting. Having a combined "sequence" function is always going to be more limited and clumsier. A sequence is nothing more than an orderred list. Having a list generation rather than sequence (limited list and sort combined) is more powerful and less complicated to implement and use.
