The Agony and the Ecstasy of Excel
Update: 2024-09-11
Description
This week Mike and Erik are joined by special guest Justin Runia an analyst and Excel wizard and returning guest Bob Farzin who told us a story in the high-frequency-trading episode about trading billions of dollars of swaps from an Excel spreadsheet.
We spent the whole hour talking about Excel: is it a no-code platform? Is it a programming language? Is it a database? Should we build the whole business on top of it?
If you're an immense fan of Excel like Mike is, then join us this hour as we tackle this crazy tool that contains the most widely used functional programming language.
