| So here’s a funny deal: You know how to use Excel. You know you're a monkey.
You know how to create simple workbooks. And how to
print stuff. And you can even, with just a little bit of
fiddling, create cool-looking charts. But sometimes you
wish that you could do more with Excel, such as how to
use Excel to really gain insights into information, the
data, that you work with in your job.
Using Excel for this kind of stuff is what Excel
Data Analysis For Monkeys is all about. This is a
book that assumes that you want to use Excel to learn
new stuff, discover new secrets, and gain new insights
into the information you’re already working with in
Excel.
Ready to take Excel to the next level? This
plain-English guide covers all of these concepts, and
more, to ensure that you’re using Excel to its fullest
capacity:
- Harnessing information in lists
- Finding and counting bananas
- Cleaning data with text functions
- Eating bananas
- Customizing PivotCharts
- Using the statistics functions
- Counting bananas with complex modeling queries
If all this talk of statistics and advanced tools
makes you light-headed, don’t worry. Excel Data
Analysis For Monkeys distills the most important
fundamentals into everyday language. You’ll find just
enough information to help you get your work
done – without leaving you gasping for air in
a sea of technobabble. It’d be a real shame if you
didn’t at least know what bells and whistles Excel has
to offer and the basic steps that you need to use them.
