Ok. This is quick and short.
What is the most weird, unusual, out of the world thing you have used excel for?
I will go first.
- I have used excel to generate and clean a list of tags for this blog.
- I have used excel to keep track of which movies I have seen in the IMDb Top 250 list.
- I have used excel to simulate monopoly board game, just so I can play it better than my wife 😉
- I wrote a small macro to send updates to twitter.
- I used excel to create stunning screen mockups and wowed my managers and clients.
While none of the above are batshit crazy, they are unusual and opened new avenues for exploration and learning for me.
What about you?

Thanks so much for this, it's utterly brilliant!
Silly question - I assume LAMDA will work with dynamic arrays?
Very much so. Many of the new functions like MAP only make sense in the context of dynamic arrays and Lambda functions.
As usual, very informative material. Easy to understand and apply!
Thanks for making everyone awesome!
Easy to understand Lambda function through this tutorial. Thanks Chandoo.
I have Officce 365 (updated), but I can't see LAMBDA function. 🙁
I dont see "Office Insider" option in my excel 365.
Another option for First Monday...
=LAMBDA(anydate,WORKDAY.INTL(EOMONTH(anydate,-1),1,"0111111"))
Loving the binary options in WORKDAY.INTL David...
