New additions:
·SolverTable for Mac now available: As of October 2020, a version of my SolverTable add-in is now available for Mac users. Because of differences between Windows and the Mac, this version is slightly different from the Windows version, but it has the same capabilities and produces the same results. See the Free downloads page for a link to this version.
Download Solver Table For Excel 2013
(Solver is bundled with Excel 2011). Solver for Microsoft Excel 2008 for Macintosh is available and you can download it, free, right now. It was our way of re-introducing ourselves to the Mac community. Installing Data Analysis & Solver Add-ins for Excel 2019(Office 365) Resolved: Excel 2016 for Mac - Solver Add-in not allowing cell references to be picked Crestron AirMedia for.
·DADM_Tools add-in: See the top of the Free downloads page for links to this free add-in I developed in 2019.
·@ symbols in add-in functions: Starting in 2020 (or 2019?), we were surprised to see @ symbols next to @RISK functions, such as =@RiskNormal(0,1) instead of =RiskNormal(0,1). (They can also appear next to Palisade’s PrecisionTree functions, Palisade’s StatTools functions, and even my RandGen functions such as Normal_, discussed on my Free_downloads page. In short, they can, depending on the version of Excel you are using, appear next to “user-defined functions” (UDFs) in any Excel add-in.) Where did these @ symbols come from? Are they necessary? Should you delete them? After talking at length with a key programmer at Palisade, I learned that these @ symbols are Microsoft’s attempt to deal with a new feature, dynamic arrays. Unfortunately, even though most of us don’t use dynamic arrays, the @ symbols can affect all of us. The whole issue is complex, but the following document, borrowed (with permission) from a Palisade website, provides more explanation: Dynamic Arrays and Add-In Functions.docx. It appears that the best practice, at least for now, is to leave these @ symbols alone but to ignore them. And if you are creating your own @RISK models (or models in any Excel add-in), there is no need to type the @ symbols; if they appear later, just ignore them.
·Array formulas and ctrl+shift+enter: For years, we (and everyone else) have been telling users to enter array formulas, such as formulas involving MMULT, by pressing ctrl+shift+enter. This still works, but in Excel 365, where Microsoft introduced dynamic arrays (see the previous bullet), it is not necessary. Regardless of whether the result is a single cell or a multiple-cell range, such formulas work by pressing enter or ctrl+shift+enter. Confusing? You bet! See https://exceljet.net/dynamic-array-formulas-in-excel, for example.
·Business Analytics: Data Analysis and Decision Making, 7th edition: This edition was released in Spring 2019.
·Practical Management Science, 6th edition: This edition was released in Fall 2017. It is accompanied by plenty of materials at the Cengage MindTap site.
Excel For Mac Solver
·Excel tutorial: The Excel tutorial that used to be available has been revised extensively. It is now called ExcelNow!, and it is available at excelnowtutorial.com at a very reasonable price. A version of ExcelNow! without videos is available at the Free downloads page.
·Analysis ToolPak Guide: Some users have expressed a desire to use Excel’s built-in Analysis ToolPak add-in, instead of Palisade’s StatTools, for data analysis. Although StatTools is definitely a better statistical add-in, Analysis ToolPak does have the advantage that it’s free and built into Excel. Therefore, I have written an Analysis ToolPak Guide that’s now available in the Free Downloads page.
·Mac users: There seems to be an increasing number of students using Mac computers, and the question is whether they are compatible with the software in our books. There are two answers, one positive and one negative. First, as we have seen with many of our students at Indiana, it is possible, and fairly easy, to install Windows emulation software on Macs, the two most common being Bootcamp (free) and Parallels (not free). Then everything appears to work fine. You are simply running Windows on a Mac. Second, however, if you are running the Mac OS with Excel 2011 for the Mac, then all bets are off. This version of Excel is basically a different product from Excel for Windows, with a very different look and feel. Excel 2016 for the Mac is a better choice. Its ribbon structure is very much like Excel for Windows, although it still has a menu bar that has some redundancies, given the ribbons. However, some of the features in Excel for Windows, notably quick analysis, flash fill, and Power Pivot, are still missing in Excel for the Mac. (These missing features are apparently being added through time, but who knows when they might appear.) Bottom line (in my opinion): If you want to use a Mac and get the most from Excel, you should install Windows emulation software.
·Missing Palisade software?All new copies of our Business Analytics: Data Analysis and Decision Making and Practical Management Science books should give you access to the Palisade suite.
