Problem Solving with Excel
This 70-minute training video on CD-ROM will show you how to make engineering problem solving more effective, less time consuming, and easier to communicate to others. Through video, audio and watching the actual steps on example spreadsheets the user can build skills in working with labels in formulas, data filtering, optimization, goal seeking for iterative solutions, data tables, lookup functions, and macros and forms. This CD-ROM will help engineers and other problem solvers follow a logical format and approach when using Excel spreadsheets to solve engineering problems. The video package, produced by Purdue professor Dennis Buckmaster, grew out of his workshop experiences with students, faculty, and practicing engineers. The presentation assumes the user is familiar with basic spreadsheet skills such as formula editing, graphing, and formatting. In addition to being a training video, the package serves as a valuable reference.
