^^^ Yeah but then you’d get marked down. I didn’t have to do it, and didn’t get penalised for it either.

Because the award for doing well at school is so important… Not.

I love math and especially enjoy creating excel formulas to solve problems.
Self taught excel because it didn’t exist when I went to school. Neither was computing. My high school owned one computer used in admin.

I do most math in my head or estimate the result for my real world math problems. I’ll get more involved in these challenges when I have more time on my hands.

My brain needs the exercise!

Hey, learning early on that no matter how hard you try, in the end no one really cares except you is an important skill ;P haha

I always hated math, was never good at it, and it cost me getting a job as a pilot.
But these days, doing these puzzle like problems i find kind fun…

and i dont know why, but i like using excel as well :S haha.
Have seen some pretty crazy stuff done with it, like making games.
