When I was in Perth, I visited Hui’s house one day. Lovely, Hui’s daughter (who is about 14) asked Hui how he knew me. Hui told that we both share a passion for Excel and thats how we got to know each other. Then she asked, What is Excel?
At this point, we both tried to explain what Excel is to her in a few ways with no success. Later Hui came up with a brilliant explanation.
He said, Excel has lots of small calculators all interconnected, so that you can do any sort of calculation.
So here is a challenge for you. How would you explain Excel to a small kid (or someone who never heard about it).

Go ahead and be funny, outrageous, creative or elaborate. Say something.

Sweet! I won! Thank you so much, Chandoo! I'm really speechless! I'll look out for an e-mail from you. Again, I really appreciate it, and I can't wait to fire it up!
Sincerely,
Tom "this one" 🙂
Thank You... Thank You... Thank You... 🙂
Hi,
Don't want to ruin your party.. 😉 but I noticed that when you sort the list A2:B11 (step 2), the RAND function re-calculates the numbers so that they are different and in mixed order again. I had to paste the whole area as values first and then sort to get it to work.
Wonder if the same happened to you because in your list at least Greg has a higher value than Tom 🙂
