Here is a quick Monday tip for data junkies.
If you want to shuffle a list of numbers or cells in excel in random order you can do that with “data > sort” menu option of excel.
- First insert a column next to the list you want to shuffle and enter random numbers in each cell in using
=rand(). See below:
- Now select the entire list and sort it by the new column with random numbers. (Menu > data > sort)
- If you want a fresh set of shuffled list, just hit f9 (recalculates all formulas) and sort again
Like this? Also learn how to sort horizontally, fill only weekdays while auto-filling dates

In 2013 you can also add to the QAT the hidden command "Toggle Full Screen View".
Instead of using the shortcut CTRL+F1, I prefer just to double-click one of the tab names (ie double-click the "Home" text on the Home tab) to enable the Ribbon Outline view. To return to the normal Ribbon state, just double-click your mouse again!
press Ctrl+Shift+F1, you will get a full screen
Instead of Ctrl + F1, I use Ctrl + Shift + F1 (Excel 2016)
Alt W E sequence for full screen
ESC to get back
